I don’t know why but they fit me really well. I’m tall-ish at 6’2” and have freakishly long (38” sleeves) arms. A friend of mine who’s built nearly identical to me with slightly shorter arms has had to remove a bunch of wood from his renegade and on more than one occasion has had a knot on his cheek bone.If you had read my post, the question you posed, is unnecessary. I MANUALLY modified the stock to eliminate the painful "cheekslapping" caused by the factory stock.
Although the TC Hawken was popular, it's apparent that very little research by Thompson/Center asre what fits the general public was done. The high comb and bulbous cheekpiece were "mistakes" except if the intended rifle was meant for using a 'scope....which is very unlikely w/ a MLer.
A neighbor bought a Cabela's Hawken and the same faults present w/ the TC Hawken cursed this rifle. After suffering w/ a very sore cheek, he brought it over and the same modifications that were done w/ the TC Hawken, were done w/ the Cabela's. He was amazed how comfortable his Cabela's Hawken shot after the changed butt stock......Fred
