To get professional results, is not rocket science.

I use the Miles Gilbert jig on my bench to fit four or five pads a week.
Works with any pad, any rifle.

Even for one use, cheaper than sending it to a smith or stockmaker.
You can always sell it after and recoup your $$.

Without a jig, it is impossible to get a quality job as you won't be able to match the comb and toe angles correctly. You do need a benchtop disc/belt sander.

Midway USA has a video showing exactly how to do it ("how to install a recoil pad").
