Put on a Scout Scope mount / Primary Arms Micro Dot combo and my cheek weld has gone to a wobbly chin weld. Anybody put a cheek riser on their SKS and, if so, what kind?  I don't want NC Star garbage but I can't justify an $80 one either.

Depending on how much/what type of mount you put on it, I put a Rick Lowe Leather riser on mine.  It is beautifully made, but definitely not cheap-- I think I paid around $100 for it.  However, considering I spent near that on the mount itself (I got the brass stacker scout mount), I justified it to myself, and the rifle looks beautiful now.  

In my experience a lot of the more affordable stuff for the SKS, Mosin, and other popular surplus rifles tends to be really cheap Chinese-made garbage that doesn't work at all.  The receiver covers with a rail on top are what come to mind, especially for the SKS.

My point is, if I were you I would just opt for the more expensive option and be happy rather than something cheap that might leave you disappointed.  Although someone else might have a more affordable option in mind that actually works.
