Raising the Comb on a Plinkster (or any other rifle)

I got a 702 plinkster for Christmas and am setting it up as an Appleseed gun.
I put on Tech Sights, Swivels, a GI Sling.

The Tech Sights sit up pretty high and I am getting more of a Jaw Weld than a cheek Weld.
I ordered a Blackhawk adjustable Cheek Pad off of eBay (hasn't arrived yet).

What do you guys do?
I will be getting a 'real' rifle in the not too distant future
 
And to contribute my DIY
I cut up a Beer Koozie into strips.
Stacked them up and taped them on with Black Gaffer tape (doesn't leave a gummy residue like Duct tape).
 
Is there a reason why you couldn't just get the correct height scope rings for that particular setup?? That would be my first recommendation. It would be less bulk, weight, fuss and much more simplified and streamlined that way.

But if the scope bell is too large of a diameter for a shorter ring, that would rule out that recommendation?

Something like this would probably work in that case.

The Blackhawk pad is well made.
It is also bulky....
I would prefer it to be more targeted in the padding...it's spread over the whole think rather than just where you need it.
