Default RE: Where to get a Custom Length Stock?

By saying you like hogue stocks I am thinking that you are leaning toward synthetic stocks. A cheap stock that comes longer is ramline but I really don't care for them much. Measure a hogue stock and add the thickness of a really thick recoil pad. Try the same with ramline,and all the different brands you can find. With your height,it sounds like you need a 14.5 to 15,or even up to 16length of pull. The easist way to check your length of pull,hold the stock in your hand as if you are going to shoot it(holding the pistol grip),with your arm staright up,with the correct fit,the pad should be touching your upper arm while holding it upright,with your arm bent at 90 degrees.
