I had been looking for something that would help my wife with her cheek weld when shooting her 243. When a friend told me about the BlackHawk ammo cheek pad I decided to give it a try.
This cheek pad gives just the right amount of padding allowing the shooter a relaxed cheek weld while aiding in aliening the shooters head with their scope. For us this resulted in a more comfortable and consistent shooting position especially when shooting off hand.
The BlackHawk ammo cheek pad installs easily on any rifle in a manner of minutes and has not slipped or moved on any of our rifles. I am impressed with the pouch, this little item is great for safely securing range cards and a host of little items you may wish to have with you at all times.
All in all this seems to be a well made unit and we are more than pleased with our purchase.

Will probably replace the elastic lace with cord that is less stretchy to give a more attached feel. I'd say this will fix my only real issue with this item.
Pros: compact, quality feel good
Cons: elastic lace doesn't feel tight enough
Would recommend: Yes

Bought for my Marlin XL7 30-06. Fitted securely, quickly, and easily. Comfortable cheek rest, no-slip construction, and the string wrapping allows you to shape to fit and stock. The shell holder easily fit 5 30-06 rounds tightly and without and sliding. The internal zipper pouch is a definite plus, allowing other items to be brought where ever you go. I managed to EASILY stuff it with an ENTIRE box of Remington Core-Loct 30-06 rounds, with the zipper easily securing around 20 extra rounds. Being able to carry so much extra ammo is comforting and an unexpected plus. Will be buying more for my other rifles.
Pros: Light weight, secure, solid contruction.
Cons: No clear instruction manual included
Would recommend: Yes

Goes on/off easily. holds 5 shells exposed and I can put another 20 in the zipper pouch. Maybe could put boresnake in pocket instead. Will try on my 308 soon

I placed this on an H&R Varmint rifle (.223 single shot). holds 5 shells easily on the outside, another 20 in the zip-up pouch. I can reload quickly from the exposed rounds. The lacing is large enough to use on any rifle, and can be tightened easily. May keep a boresnake in the zipper pouch. Will try next time out
Pros: simple to install. holds tight
Cons: none
Would recommend: Yes

I bought one of these for a skeletonized AK stock (ACE brand) as the nicer IVS cheek pad by Blackhawk would not fit (too small a stock). This pad adjusted well to the small stock and fit tightly, but did not raise the height enough by itself, as the padding in it is fairly lower than what the IVS has. Still, it performs well, is easily adjustable (paracord tie-down vs. velcro straps on the IVS) to any size stock. With the addition of some foam pipe insulation from a local home improvement store however, it is working perfectly. Would recommend for odd shaped stocks, but for something like a hunting rifle, the IVS may be worth the few extra bucks.
Pros: Well made, accessory bag and shell holder, highly adjustable
Cons: not very much lift over normal stock height
Would recommend: Yes

I've got this on my Mini-14 with black composite stock and it looks great. I like how you can adjust for a perfect custom fit with the rope system as opposed to stretch material or straps. It puts my cheek in the perfect position especially with a scope and it's very soft. The zippered pouch is much appreciated as you can finally carry miscellaneous small parts with no problem. I wish they made this for my Remington 870 with Shotgun shells!
Pros: Easy Custom Fit
Cons: None
Would recommend: Yes
