11 trophy hunter xp recoil pad

Just got the 11 TH XP 22-250. My question is about the recoil pad. It feels like a flimsy piece of rubber foam and it does not have the indian or any marking what so ever on it. It actually makes the rifle 1 inch longer than the original length that was advertised. I got this new from a local dealer but it had a sticker that said a cabellas exclusive. I ordered this rifle back in Feb and just recieved it. Any info on the rubber pad that made it longer than advertisement and what ya all think about the caballas sticker being on it. It was NIB and the lock and instructions and ext. was still sealed.
