Recoil pad for Whitworth
Anyone have a suggestion what pad would be the best fit for a Whitworth in .375?

I bought the rifle earlier this year and the pad is in good shape other than having solidified to Ruger-ish hardness. Cool

I imagine that I'll end up with a grind to fit, but it never hurts to ask.

You'll want to get a nice "grind to fit" Old English style 752 Decelerator and then cut it to fit.

Old English is one of my favorites, also.
