Hello CaptCurl,

Yes, and if you look closely you can see "another" wood screw hole, just below the toe screw into the wood plug. That means this is at least the "third" butt-pad (plate) on this rifle.

"For what it's worth, replacement of the pad will not affect the originality of your rifle."



Yes, I know. But I sure like the looks of this pad.

"P.S. Beware that the pad may be glued onto the stock in addition to the screw attachment."



Well, this just keeps getting better, doesn't it!

I've thought about drilling a small 1/4" hole above the toe plug in order to access the through-bolt. That way I would preserve the existing plugs, and add a smaller "new plug".

I would still like to know if the clearance hole through the draw bolt, for the tang screw, is a "hole" or a "slot". If it was a slot, I could check / tighten the stock in 1/2 turn increments through the new 1/4" access-hole that I drilled through the existing pad, without having to removing the pad. However, if its a hole and not a slot (through the draw-bolt) then the entire draw-bolt would have to be removed, and the stock tightness adjusted (if necessary) using washers under the head.

Anyone know the answer?
