Comb risers

[Mike Poindexter]

I had the opportunity to handle a gun with the Beretta riser last year. I didnt like it because it was too jelly-like, and didnt stick well to the stock. As I recall, it was about 3/16 of an inch thick. The Meadow pad is smaller, thinner, made of a naugahyde like material that has more cushion than leather, but actually looks like dark leather. Also, it goes on with a self adhesive backing that while not permanent, is so tenacious that it is very difficult to remove once on. That said, the peel off backing is cut so that you can only utilize the outer 1 inch of adhesive if you want, and leave the center portion unstuck. I probably should have tried that method instead of going all out.

I have a lace on riser and the RST Velcro as well. I have also found the RST pad slips quite a bit and it is a little thick. The Beretta jell pads I've tried work well but I have yet to purchase one. I was going to try one when quail hunting but I also needed a slip on butt pad for a little added LOP and decided the comb riser would just be to much junk on the stock and just went out and shot the gun.
