Hi,
I was browsing between the 500's and I noticed that synthetic stocked shotguns have a different recoil pad than the wood stocked 500's. The wood stocked recoil pads seem to have large vents in the pad as opposed to the synthetic one which has smaller circles. Also, the wooden pad appears to have more of a curve (C-shape) to it and extends a little beyond the toe. The synthetic is more contoured like a sigmoidal shape (S-shape) that fits the shoulder.
Any of you guys know if there's a different in quality and recoil reduction?
