[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 870193, member: 2736"] I have a 14.5 inch length of pull for normal shooting But on my match rifle I had an adjustable butt stock that I set to 13.0" for off hand, 14.25 for sitting and went all the way down to 12.0" for prone. I just built a rifle for a friend that has a 15.5 length of pull. so you are not that long. Most factory rifles are 13.5 to fit most everyone but they still have to build youth stocks shorter. If the stock is to short you have to move the scope two far forward and if it is to long you have to move it to far back so the fit is important especially for running shots. (It's just like having a shotgun that fits, You will wing shoot better). It is even more important to have the length of pull correct on hard kicking rifles in order to prevent saying hello to your scope with your eye. J E CUSTON [/QUOTE]
