Lightest 1" pad

[B 13]

Replacing the pad on a Stockys CF mini stock. Trying to keep it as light as possible, but need the length more. Anyone have experience down this road? I have a few brand options here to check weight of and try to compare material density but thought I would ask here first. All will be grind to fit, so no good comparison of post grind weight at the moment and dont want to fit a bunch just to find out and only use one. I have also read about guys making a pad from flip flop foam or similar but have not done it. Any experience or ideas for a 1" or longer piece of foam appropriate for this application?

I use smoke composite stocks. They have a butt pad as an add on. Not sure if it can be used with your stock but maybe worth a call to see.

Why not add a skeltonized kydex spacer?

Looks like they make some nice light weight/carbon fiber AR stuff. I didn't see a pad that would work for a bolt gun stock on their sight. Did I miss it?

That sounds interesting, but I'm having trouble visualizing it on the stock. Got any pictures?

Doubt it, i made the assumption you had an ar. My bad.

That could work. Available where?

Amazon for one

Tactaload LOP Spacers is just one brand

That is why I suggested making your own out of kydex, that was just the example I referenced when asked

1/2" kydex/plastic is $21 on Amazon and 12" squared, can make quite a few spacers
