I have a Browning B-27 O/U that I need to have fitted with a good recoil pad. It's a very basic field grade gun and it's light so it has plenty of felt recoil. I can really hit with this gun and expect to both hunt and shoot skeet quite a bit with it .

When you shotgun people have a pad added do you have the stock shortened or just go with a slightly longer LOP? I hate the thought of removing any wood. And what pad do you recommend?
