I am only a sophmore shooter, while some of these guys are post doctorates with tenured professorships.
I was wondering why you got a monte carlo stock? Everyone is different and what is good for one may not help another. You may wish to take a look at a book called "Stcok Fitter's Bible". Your problem may not so much be recoil but the way your gun reacts to it.
Say the pitch of the butt pad is right for me, but it may not be right for you. If it is off for your fit, it may allow the barrel to rise more than it should and that could slap you with the comb. Apologies to all and the writer of that book if I got this wrong. A simple solution could be a wedge shaped shim between the stock and the recoil pad.
Roland Oswald offers a temporary and very inexpensive experiment to see if you need a tapered shim, which is to insert washers on the top recoil pad screw. If I understand him, you can also experiment with a longer LOP but inserting a washet on both the uppper and lower screws.
