youngtrout Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 Hello, well its been awhile but I'm finally picking up my project again, a new house, with tons of work put things on the back burner for me My question, What angle do you guys usually mount the recoil pad in relationship to the barrel?? I don't have any factory stocks to measure? I started with 90 degrees using a square, I figured this a safe bet but for some reason it looks a bit weird For reference, its a richards montocarlo stock and a mark X (it took 22 weeks to get it by the way!!) but it looks alright, I think they always grade it a bit higher than what you get but my opinion thanks for any feedback!!!

I use a down pitch of about 2.5 inches. This works out to about 4 degrees. In other words the angle of the pad to the bore is about 86 degrees.
