Only way to tell will be to try the stock on when it comes and see how comfortable you are getting down over the sights. If it has the sights on it already, the answer would be in the form of a question: how high or how low is your cheekweld when your eye is properly alligned with the sights? If you're already smashing your face down on the synthetic stock, then you might be hurting when you get the new stock if it is any higher at the comb. If you're lifting your face up at all, then you'll be better off with the new stock, and if you're really reaching, then you'll be looking at a huge benefit since your new stock looks to have an adjustable cheekpiece.

Guys take proper cheekweld for granted, if I feel like I have to raise my face off the stock at all, then I add a cheekpiece. Really makes a difference.
