Installation of this non-adjustable unit is simple, and the unit will provide you with general recoil reduction, if you follow the instructions below:
1. Remove recoil pad and measure the depth of the drawbolt hole, to the head of the drawbolt, and the diameter of the hole.
2. If the hole is less that 7/8 of an inch in diameter, it will need to be drilled or reamed to that diameter, to a depth 1/8 of an inch longer than the unit.
3. Subtract the length of the Recoil Reducer, plus 1/8 of an inch, from the depth of the drawbolt hole and cut a wooden dowel for the difference. The dowel needs to be at least 13/16th in diameter, but a 7/8s dowel can be used and sanded down to slide into the drawbolt hole.
4. Slide the dowel into the hole first, so that it will be situated between the head of the drawbolt and the front of the Recoil Reducer.
5. Place the Recoil Reducer into the hole next, with the threaded hole FACING the recoil pad. If the unit is loose to the point that there is rattling in the hole, remove it and wrap a small amount of electrical tape around the side at both ends. We do not want it to rattle when it is in the hole.
6. Insert the rubber hose washers into the hole between the end of the Recoil Reducer and the recoil pad. You will have to cut a bit out of the washers so they will fit in the 7/8ths inch hole. If the hole is too deep, just supply some more washers. It may be necessary to sand a taper onto one of the washers so that it has the same pitch as the back of the stock. If possible, allow the washers to protrude from the hole about 1/32nd of an inch or so. They will squeeze down when you add the recoil pad, further insuring a tight fit. Reinstall the recoil pad and you are ready to go.
That’s it! Take it out and give it a try! It will take one or two hundred rounds before it starts working to it’s optimum, but you shall notice an immediate reduction in recoil.
