Achilles-13 3 Posted November 18 Report Share Posted November 18 Hi all About 1,5 years ago I bought a sauer 100xt in 308, rifle shoots well with my preferred ammo and took it out a handfull of times (6). Recently I noticed that the recoil pad started “rubbing off”, resulting in black stripes on clothing where the rifle rests / is manoeuvered during drives/hunting and in the place I store it . (Easy enough to clean off the cabinet, stains are near impossible to get out of my clothes that don’t even stain with oil…) I contacted my RFD and they sent me a new recoil pad free of charge, it arrived today and what do you now? It rubs off black as well, even when running your thumb along the edges etc. I contacted them again, saying it rubs off as well, made a couple videos to go along with it. Am I being too picky for going after this? On the one hand its a 1200 gbp rifle from a very reputable producer, it should not do that… or I could just take the new recoil pad, use contact cement for shoes and glue on a nice strip of leather and be done with it… ps, never cleaned the stock with anything else but a clean brush and moist cotton rag. wwyd?
