Doug, can a leather pad be installed using a Cervellati microcell pad as a base? Dave I'm gunna try one but I think it may be too soft to stretch the leather over.

Eightbore, Could you explain how the wooden plugs work. Sounds kind of like a piston under recoil. Can you feel them when you shoot it.

I use kick-eez pads, black goat leather, no screw hole plugs, and charge local friends $50. NO FFL so I can not ship or receive. I have had a covered pad on my K-80 for 5 years with no problems. I would guess that it has seen at least 50,000 shots.

If you have black streaking in the buttstock it is hard to beat a black leather covered pad for class, IMO.
The pic above proves it. Just how could another color improve on that?

Greenwood did a nice leather pad job on my Arrieta. It took 3 months.
