Why Sporting & Skeet Shooters Choose MicroCore®
Soft, progressive recoil absorption: MicroCore’s proprietary micro-cell structure spreads impulse over time, helping reduce felt recoil while preserving a lively, connected gun feel.
Fast, snag-free mount: A lightly textured, non-tacky face slides into position cleanly, preventing hang-ups on vests or jerseys during quick transitions.
Slim 0.51" profile: Keeps length of pull (LOP) changes minimal, ideal when you want extra comfort without disrupting a proven gun fit.
Shoulder-locking shape: Contoured edges increase surface contact to anchor the butt consistently, enhancing mount repeatability and cheek weld.
Competition-ready durability: Resilient black rubber resists compression set and temperature swings, delivering season-after-season performance.

Performance You’ll Notice
Less face slap, steadier beads: Progressive damping smooths the shot cycle so your sight picture and mount remain stable for quicker second birds.
Improved swing and follow-through: Balanced softness minimizes rebound and keeps the butt firmly planted during hard crossers.
Repeatable mount, every station: The pad’s contour helps align the gun in the pocket consistently, reinforcing muscle memory across long practice days.

Fit & Compatibility Notes
Intended for Beretta shotguns with MicroCore®-ready buttstocks (Sporting/Skeet configurations).
Fit can vary between field vs. target stocks and by model generation; verify your shotgun’s pad pattern and screw spacing before purchase.
Generally installs with existing hardware; avoid over-tightening to protect the rubber structure.
Quick Installation Overview
Unload and double-check the shotgun is safe.
Remove the existing pad (typically two screws through the pad face).
Align the MicroCore® pad with stock holes; start screws by hand.
Tighten gently and evenly until snug—do not compress the rubber.
Mount the gun to confirm LOP and shoulder alignment.
