I have had pretty good luck by adding length to the LOP. As long as it is not a parallel comb (or, shudder, Monte Carlo) you will get more effective drop by doing this because your cheek moves rearward on the comb when LOP is lengthened.

This is easy for me to say, however, as most buttstocks are not long enough for me anyway. Won't work, obviously, if the LOP is already as long as you can stand it.

You can try this for yourself just by mounting the gun in question, then pushing it slightly forward off your shoulder while keeping your cheek on the comb. You can easily see the effective drop increase as your eye goes down in relation to the rib.
