If it was in 9.3x64 it would stand a chance
I reckon that the drop in (and pitch of) the stock; is just about right for a hunting (as opposed to bush-sniping) rifle but then ... I am not a height-deprived person, i.e. a short-arse!except for the excessive drop at heel.

Thank you for the reply. How difficult is it to replace? The safety won't move. I have minimal gunsmithing skills, but could definitely perform a basic replacement.The Brno 21H rifles were equipped with a wing type safety on the cocking piece shroud, that was two position only. It does not lock the bolt. And it is a bit too close to the scope. If were mine and the safety was broken, I'd choose to replace it because any good M98 bolt shroud safety can replace it with minimal fitting. And you can upgrade to a horizontal swing M70 type safety that has three positions and locks the bolt and stays out of the way of the scope. I have replaced the safeties on three of those rifles, one with a Recknagel ( best) and two with a Dakota safety. All are an improvement over the original.
A suggestion - take the bolt out of your rifle and turn out the cocking piece. That should allow closer inspection and perhaps reveal the problem.
