How to Grind A Recoil Pad With the Miles Gilbert Jig from Wheeler Engineering

In this video I cover how to grind a recoil bad to match the comb and toe angles of a butt stock. In this case I used the Miles Gilbert Jig from Wheeler Engineering.

Personally, I think softening the recoil is important, especially in activities such as sporting clays, trap, or 5 stand where you may spend long periods of time and rounds.
