Default measuring for a recoil pad

How does one measure the length a gunstock should be on a long gun? I have
a Remington 1100 that I want to put a recoil pad on. When I put it up to my
shoulder, it looks like I am looking up the vent rib, which would mean to me
that the stock is too short. I am calling a gunsmith tomorrow to see how
much it costs for them to put a pad on it. I was just wondering, though, as
I am sure I can do a slip on pad for less. It is just I was wondering how
to measure for that.

Steve
