Choate 3-way Adjustable Butt Plate Black Anodized

This Adjustable Butt Plate has allowed me to position the stock where it needs to be while shooting prone. Moving the butt pad up has allowed me to get it in the proper position in my shoulder. I haven't adjusted the cant yet to see if it improves the fit. I plan to.

Advantages: You can adjust the LOP without removing or installing spacers and you can get the exact fit. You can move the recoil pad up or down on the plate to get an exact position in your shoulder. I had a problem when shooting prone that the butt pad of the stock sat low in my shoulder (due to target height and Bi-Pod height). Moving this butt pad up cured that problem.

Disadvantages: The only problem I had was that the recoil pad on the adjustable Butt Plate was too hard and thin to absorb any recoil. It hurt when I shot it!! To solve the pain issue, I modified the original Choate recoil pad that was on the stock to fit the new plate. I had to drill a hole in the center for the adjusting screw and buy longer screws to attach it to the plate. Now it work great and no longer hurts. Adding the original recoil pad lengthened the minimum LOP to 13 1/4 inches, not a problem for me.

Excellent quality. Width of butt plates slightly narrow for butt stocks other than Choate. To make this adjustable butt plate a better option I would suggest it be offered in unanodized condition with a slightly wider width for fitting to a different profile stock butt.

Instructions could be more clear. In too strong an effort to be concise, part of the web site description can be misunderstood: "horizontally adjustable up and down 1" in either direction". This actually means the butt plate can be rotated to any angle while also being moved up or down 1".

Advantages: Reasonable price. Prompt delivery. Construction appears solid and professional to the consumer's eye. Installation is a snap. Fit is perfect on the tactical stock. Gives true 3-way adjustment . . . LOP, butt plate angle, butt plate height.

Disadvantages: It doesn't auto-load ammo :) Seriously, I can't find a disadvantage at this point in time. While there is absolutely no evidence of any potential issue, only longevity remains to be tested.

Great upgrade to the choate tactical stock. Gives lots of adjustability especially shooting prone.

Advantages: Adjustability

Disadvantages: None

Good value for a direct fit, adjustable butt plate. Shipping was fast!

Advantages: Value, adjustability, ease of install

Disadvantages: Heavy for a butt pad, but helps balance out the rifle.

This is a must have product for people who need a LOP stretch. I'm 6' Tall with a reach of 75". Those of you need a LOP that is comfortable this is the attachment. I also noticed a recoil impulse drop once the butt pad was clocked to my shoulder contour. With that stated also the adjustment in the elevation can make a shooters comfort level increase. Those three things were not only noticed by myself but also some of my shooting buddies. I do hope this helps.
