Gunsmithing Question about Badger M2008 in AICS

I recently bought an AICS for my Badger 338LM action. The AICS was milled out at Badger (I think by Marty) to fit the larger action. My only issue is the bolt hits the cheek piece when pulled to the rear. It won't allow the next round to be picked up from the magazine.

Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a fix other than cutting down the cheek piece? Is there a shorter cheek piece for the AICS (it's a 2.0 LA btw).

thanks for the help.
