Obviously, I have to grind off 1/8” lengthwise and 3/8” width wise, make it symmetrical, and fit right.

Or should I just consider a buttplate? Length of pull from trigger to end of stock (minus buttplate) is 12 3/4” from the single trigger which is in the rearmost position.

“Description

Authentic reproductions of the red rubber recoil pad that graced so many guns produced by the Ithaca Gun Co. Manufactured in the United States from original designs, these classic pads can be fitted to most stocks. Total pad depth is 1", including the 3/16" black 'hard rubber' base. Large: 5 5/16" long x 2" wide, screw holes are 3 1/8" apart. Small: 5" long x 1 13/16" wide, screw holes are 3 1/16" apart.”

I ordered this recoil pad. Any tips?
