    Quick question for everybody that has an A5. What butt pad are you using on it? Mine says McMillan on the pad. It is an adjustable length of pull pad if that makes a difference.
    I am just looking to see if I can order a better pad from McMillan. I like it. It is just a bit thin. My old B&C has a decelerator pad on it. I like that pad. I them on McMillan's site. I just did not know which pad I have sense it just says McMillan on the pad.
    Thank you. Any help is appreciated.

    I have on a5 with the thin solid McMillan pad. It just says McMillan on it. I have another one with the decelerator and it doesn't say anything if I remember right.

    I ground my own pad to fit and replaced the harder McM pad with that. Took about 30 minutes.

    I asked this question a year or two ago. You can call McM and they will set you up with a thicker pad if you would like. I have a few A5's in the safe now and the pads on all of them are the same. I needed a thicker one, asked the question and was pointed to McM who sent me a Decel setup for the A5.

    I called McMillan. They were very helpful. But I could only order the pad in a grind to fit. So I ordered from Midway. It was a bit cheaper to order from them. But thank you again.
