Description
Anyone who has thrown a scope on a rifle or a red dot on their shotgun knows the frustration of floating your head above the stock trying to find the reticle. The Magpul Hunter/SGA High Cheek Riser Kit fixes that by raising your comb to meet your line of sight, giving you a solid, repeatable cheek weld shot after shot. It's a small polymer part that makes a big difference in how a gun points and feels.
What the Hunter/SGA High Cheek Riser Kit Does
This is the High configuration, which ships with two risers: a 0.50-inch piece and a 0.75-inch piece. You pick whichever height gets your eye centered behind your particular sight or optic setup, snap it into place, and you're done. No permanent changes to the stock and no tools drama, so swapping between the two is quick if your optic situation changes down the road. That flexibility is a big reason folks with taller rings and mounts reach for the High kit over the Low version.
Fitment Across the Magpul Lineup
The kit is built to work with a solid range of Magpul stocks: the Hunter X-22, Hunter X-22 Takedown, SGA shotgun stocks, Hunter 700, Hunter 700L, and the Hunter American. That covers rimfire plinkers, big-game bolt guns, and defensive or field shotguns, so one part number covers a lot of ground depending on what's in your safe.
Built the Way You Expect from Magpul
Molded from the same tough reinforced polymer Magpul is known for, these risers hold up to real field use and match the look and finish of the stock they clip onto. The black finish blends right in, and the low-profile shape adds the height you need without piling on bulk or weight. It's made in the USA, and it's the kind of inexpensive upgrade that ends up feeling essential once a scope goes on the gun.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the Magpul High and Low cheek riser kits?
The High kit you're looking at includes a 0.50-inch and a 0.75-inch riser, while the Low kit comes with shorter risers for less added height. Go with the High kit if you're running taller scope rings or a bigger optic that needs more comb height to line up your eye. If you're on iron sights or a very low-mounted optic, the Low kit is usually the better call.
Which stocks does the Hunter/SGA High Cheek Riser Kit fit?
It's designed for the Magpul Hunter X-22, Hunter X-22 Takedown, SGA shotgun stocks, Hunter 700, Hunter 700L, and Hunter American stocks. That covers everything from a Ruger 10/22 build to a Remington 700 bolt gun to an 870 shotgun setup. Just make sure your stock is one of those Magpul models before ordering.
How do the risers attach to the stock?
They snap into place on the stock without any permanent modification, so installation is quick and straightforward. Because there's nothing permanent about it, you can swap between the two included heights whenever your optic setup changes. No gunsmithing or special tools required.
Do I need this if my Magpul stock already has a cheek piece?
Many shooters find the factory comb height sits too low once a scope or optic goes on, which forces you to lift your head to see the reticle. This kit raises the comb so your cheek stays planted and your eye lines up naturally every time. It's a small, budget-friendly part that a lot of folks end up considering a must-have after mounting glass.
