Hamster Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 There's a guy in America - where cheek slap seems much more common - who claims it's often caused by the pitch angle of the recoil pad not matching the shooter's physique and allowing the muzzles to rise too much. In other words the bottom of the pad is directing more recoil than the top thus allowing the gun to swing upwards when fired. As suggested above it's easy to experiment with spacers under the top of the pad to change the pitch. I agree pitch is very often at least one of the causes, I have personally found that with a new gun I can usually iron out the recoil phase to an acceptable level using the adjustable combs as well.
