Aftermarket cheek piece

I shoot left handed so the cheek piece on my rifle is on the wrong side. I will need it to be higher as well padded. Also can't use the ammo carrier on some of them since it is usually on the wrong side also. I don't need to carry ammo on my stock anyway. I did see one somewhere that bolted on and allowed height to be adjusted after it was mounted by loosening the bolts. I kind of like that better than a strap on model but have never used any before so thought I had better get some advice. Let me know what has worked or not and help me make a decision.
Thanks

If the strap on/lace on type are not what you want you could try this:

I go the cheap route and use pipe insulation.

Since your stock comb is not ambidextrous, adding the ambi cheekpiece should solve your issue.

how much do you need the comb raised?

This will take you up about 1 1/4"-1/2" max.
