Shorten LOP on a Tikka T3
The LOP on my Tikka T3 Lite Stainless is about a half inch too long. I can't find much online in the way of aftermarket recoil pads that are any smaller than the factory pad. Anyone know of any options, or is this a custom job?

Specs list Minimum 335mm (13.2") adjustable with spacers. If 13.2" is too long, sounds like the butt needs to be cut.

It measures 14". I want it to be no more than 13.5". The factory recoil pad is at least an inch thick, so a thinner pad would do the trick.

Re: Shorten LOP on a Tikka T3
Assuming the 13.2" minimum is an accurate factory spec, and you are unable to get there by removing spacers, it sounds like the present recoil pad may not be factory.
Suggestion: Contact Tikka customer service. Ask if their spec is 13.2" minimum, and if so, how they arrive at it, and how thick their recoil pad is. They may fix you up with product you need, or information to achieve it.
