So I took out my grandfather's Remington 721 to dial in a new scope for hunting season next week. I have shot it for years, and only now really clued into the fact that it has a steel butt plate instead of recoil pad. Its the original stock, though heavily dinged and used (just the way I like it).
What I wanted to know is how folks feel about having a steel butt plate on their bolt guns versus a recoil pad.
Part of me says, hmm maybe I should swap it out for a pad, the other part of me says leave the thing the way it is.
So what's been your mileage with that question?
