Fitting a scope to a Number 4 - any tips please

[harry mac]

Whatever scope you go for, fit a cheek pad. If you don't, the comb of the stock smacks you in the jaw every time you fire. It's not too bad for a couple of shots, but it gets tedious and uncomfortable after that, and the next day it's quite tender to the touch. If you use one of the replica No4T cheek pieces, you might want to acquire a spare butt first to avoid drilling into the original one.
