Ok everyone, here is the stupid question of the day.

I have a 8mm Czech Mauser that I love to shoot. Unfortunately, I seem to have a wussy shoulder, and it doesn't like to put up with the recoil.

Has anyone found a decent recoil pad for this rifle? I would prefer something that replaces the steel butt plate on the rifle rather than a slip on model. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
 
I made one out of a flip flop pad for my 98. After a rough cut I mounted it using two washers installed in razor cuts inside the flip flop pad and the screws used for the metal butt plate. I taped the wood with masking tape and sanded the flip flop pad for finish. It's not the neatest job ever, but it's not jarring to the eye.
 
The medium Galco pad fits the 8mm Mausers perfectly. I don't leave home without it.

It also fits Enfields and Swiss K-31's.:D
