One of the posters in the FAQs said it was the medium Kick Killer.

Measure your butt stock and then look at the item descrption on Cabela's web page. They give you the corresponding size range chart there.

I bought the small but it was a very tight fit and would buy medium next time.

I've used two slip-ons on BC stocks, the small Limbsaver and the small Galco, neither are real tight,  a medium of either would be way too big.

First thing I did was slip a small limbsaver on mine.
Some of the best money I ever spent.
Allows for a lot more shooting for sure. ;)

I have the small Kick Killer pad on my BC carbine .45LC. It is tight at the butt plate, but the leather overlaps at the top. I simply installed a 1" strip of rein leather over the swivel stud, under the laces. It is tight now. Good luck.
