[QUOTE="Sam11, post: 83563, member: 3589"] Justin: Like a few others suggested attach the pad and scribe the outline of the butt of the stock on the pad. I purchased a Miles Gilbert Recoil Pad Installation Fixture (about $20) and what it does is to allow you to get the angle on the toe exact while keeping the pad square to your grinder. One pointer if you use this jig is to grind the toe end first, reset the jig to the angle on the top of the stock, grind it and flare into the area you did on the toe end. I was surprised how close I could get it on the first try but had to touch it up a little more as I was being careful about not grinding off too much.
