How would you cut this stock

Get two wood dowels about 3/4 " in diameter and one inch long.Glue them in place where the butt pad screws go. Fill the buttstock with spray foam and trim it even with back of stock when cured.
Get a Pachmayr Decelerator pad close to the dimensions of the butt stock and transfer screw holes to the wood dowels. Drill some pilot holes and mount the new pad.
Scribe some lines around the pad, and use a belt sander to to trim the pad to the lines. Remount pad and finish sanding to profile.

I did the same for my daughter last year on a Remington 700. To put the recoil pad back on I cut a section of 2x6 and shaped it to fill in end of the stock. Took a bit of sanding and shaping with a belt sander but it worked. I then filled the opening of stock with spray foam and epoxied the wood piece in place. Then able to screw recoil pad ( which also had to be ground down to match stock) to wooden insert. It has held up through several shooting sessions and three hunts just great.

Originally posted by dustoffer View PostBest recoil pad made in my experience and opinion. A true recoil-tamer, and it tolerates most of the solvents which turn other pads gooey very well.
Good for you to get him a rifle that fits.
