This is the rifle I am currently building and an example of cast off and cant.

First shows the castoff with reference to the line of the bore. The second shows the cant. Pay attention to the bubble on the level as the picture was fairly difficult to take and it appears the level is canted.

I have done this so that the rifle fits my body shape. You have to be careful when casting off to insure you leave material on the left side for cheek placement. This is an area where a cheek piece can help.

Cast off was about a 1/4" and cant about 1/4"
