Vertical butt adj on AX post 2014

[Gil P.]

A stupid question, but I want to know your experiences... I've noticed that many people raise the butt pad vertically while using this stock. I recently bought an AICS AX, and have never used a stock where I could adjust the butt pad vertically. When the butt pad is in its neutral position, it contacts my collarbone while prone. To move the top of the butt under my collar bone, I have to adjust the butt to it's lowest position. I wonder if something is wrong with my position. I've been shooting competitively for a few years, so I am not completely new. This is my first chassis.

I’ll be honest, I just adjusted mine until I felt comfortable, that wound up being a little low, with a cant to one side

​​​​​​How do you like the butt of the stock to fit your shoulder? I was taught to put it in my shoulder pocket below my collar bone.

Everyone's body is a little different. If it works for you, go with it. But since you asked, mine is raised a little bit.

Thanks, I'm still messing with it
