Cheek Riser/Pad?

Anybody using a cheek riser/pad with their scope on BBS or similar shaped stock? I may not be able to find one exactly like I'm looking for, but
1. I'd rather not have to lace it and unlace it every time just to clean the stock and the rifle (but I will if I have to)
2. I use a sling, so it has to work around the swivel (non-negotiable)
3. I'd rather it not look all 'tacticool' so some leather might be good (I know it's gonna be sort of ugly, so just trying to minimize that part)
4. I don't know exactly how much rise I need, so something with some adjustability would be a must (different thicknesses of pads?).
Anybody have any recommendations?

Reviews are good enough for me. Addresses all my criteria. Ordered in brown leather. Will let you know next week!

I'm interested in how you like it. I don't need one for my Big Boy but I have one I found locally on my scoped Savage .22 and have never been real happy with it.

As pictured, what prevents it from sliding to the left?

looking forward to your report .... as an interesting side note - from reading the evaluations, I was surprised by the large number of folks that bought the cheek riser for use on various CZ rifles .... don't know what, if anything, that says ..

My interpretation of how it works is that you snug it down with the velcro straps and there's a rubber backing that keeps it from moving around on the stock.
I did read a few folks saying it could use a strap on the butt-end to keep it from slipping forward, but I think that depends on the shape/slope of the stock. If it's a problem, I'll stitch on my own web strap across the back end.

I notice that, too, but didn't know what to make of it. You suppose most of them are more or less like this?

Yeah, I only know them at the company that merged with Dan Wesson (can't recall the details) and I love my DW 1911!

I notice a lot of CZs have a drooping butt, almost like the Golden Boy but not as pronounced.
