Thinner butt pad for a Model 10?

[kcb38]

I have a 10 FCP-SR and although the 1" thick cushy butt pad is nice, I'm looking for a thinner one to shorten up the length of pull a little. It's a .308 so the recoil isn't bad and I'm thinking a 1/2" pad would be ideal, if it exists. I searched but haven't seen anything so far. Anybody got a lead on one? Thx.

Don’t think you’ll find anything to order. I’d get this and make my own.

This this Neoprene is pretty hard rubber. It’s available in different hardness. 60a, 65a,70a Durometer, etc. It’s super tough, but easy to work with. Cut & shape. I’ve used it in many projects. Remove the old pad, trace out the circumference of the stock, cut it out & shape to your liking and attach with 2-part epoxy. Sounds like a lot, but it’s really not. Works great & inexpensive.

Do a search for "flip flop recoil pad" and you'll find that a lot of western hunters have removed their factory recoil pad and replaced them with a piece taken from cheap Wal-mart flip flops. Costs about $2. I did one on a Howa Mini Grendel and it worked great. Dropped the weight of the rifle by about 5 oz. too.
