Low mounts

Thanks I thought not. I'll just have to get down the range and get used to it. Why don't Daystate put an adjustable cheek piece on their £2k flagship rifle?

Its true though... Every rifle really should have one.. even if it's the most basic of adjustment it would make the world of difference. I've always picked my scope/mount combo around the hight of the cheek piece.. it would be much easier to pick a scope then mounts & just adjust your stock to suit. Seems obvious to me..
Having said that we are seeing more & more rifles with this done to them from the factory but most are synthetic unfortunately.. ho hum..

If it's not going to have an adjustable comb, at least have the comb height set up for scopes. Hardly any rifle is, even those with no open sights.

I think that depends on 2 things...
1.how big your head is..
2.how close together your eyes are....

I think most stocks are made for this guy:
