Picked up my CZ 527 7.62x39, now to convert it to 6.5 Grendel

[Drifter]

The concept of a cheek weld with the 'carbine' stock and the factory CZ scope mount is nothing more than a mythical concept. The stock is too low and the rings are too high to get a good cheek weld.

I was afraid of that.

Do you think both stock and mounts need addressing for an appropriate scoped rifle, or do you think perhaps just a stock change using your existing rings (and bolt handle) would work appropriately?

Here's an image and link to CZ's 527 Varmint stock:

Also, one of the strap-on stock pads that raises the cheek and stores ammo might be an inexpensive solution for the Carbine stock (though it might not suit everyone's taste):
