I did not mean to say that's what I paid for it. It is what Weatherby said the value of it was. My son at the time was a Weatherby employee and built the gun for me as a gift from my employer
Take it off and install a limb saver recoil pad, problem solvedI would love too, although it is glued to the carbon fiber stock. I am a bit worried about messingup the stock with the removal. Mainly, I was surprised about Weatherbys stance on a problem they know about

Personally I don't like the design, they should give you an option other then that pad. The weight savings isn't worth the hassle!

Mainly, I was surprised about Weatherbys stance on a problem they know aboutI'd take it to a gunsmith for an evaluation on whether the pad can be removed without damaging the rifle stock. If so, it would be a minimal cost on a beautiful gifted Weatherby rifle.

I know a lot of would hate the problem with the recoil pad but the gun was built with the ultimate in lightweight in mind. Randy i hope you have good luck with it. How do you like the recoil on it?
