Assuming that you were happy with the old POA/POI, the front bead pad would need to be taller than the old one to keep everything the same.
Also - keep in mind that the Auto5 is sensitive to barrel weight, due to its mechanical recoil design. Most Auto5 barrels below, say, 20" or so tend to batter the receiver badly even with the recoil rings adjusted to their magnum setting and when using light loads, due to the significant loss of barrel weight caused by the chop. If you are going to cut down the barrel on an Auto5, do not start with a Lightweight barrel and always assume that you cannot use full-power loads but very sparingly if you want the gun to last under use.
I have a 21" chop that works OK with the rings on the Magnum setting so long as I use reduced-recoil buck and slugs, but that barrel is also an older standard-weight barrel with a solid rib.
