Recoil Pad recommendation

[glblanchard]

It's not red, but I put a Falcon
strike on my 375 H&H. Reduces recoil quite a bit.

Another NECG vote. I much prefer the color and finish over Pachmayr

What cartridge/how much recoil are you trying to absorb?

I purchased an Enfield P14 from a member here, and I would like to replace the recoil pad to increase the LOP. Besides the usual recoil pad makers, are there any other you would recommend. I'd like to replace the pad with a red recoil pad. Your suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Pachmayer Decelerator is the only one I buy now. I have them in both red and black.

I have long arms (35" sleeve) unevolved I know. I use Pachmayer Decelerators on all of my rifles including my 500 Jeffery. Instead of having spacers put in, I just use a Limbsaver slip on recoil pad when hunting or at the range and then take it off. A little more padding doesn't hurt with the 500 J and I haven't altered the rifle's LOP.

I can't get those squirrely Limbsaver slip-on recoil pads to stay put on my guns. Too soft. They slip sideways, especially at the trap range. Even when using a size too small for the gun. Pachmayer slip-on stays put. Word of warning though: the easy-on design of the Decelerator is also easy off. I lost four of them during three seasons of pheasant hunting (I hunt hard in thick cover). Pachmayer now makes a less glamorous slip-on (Renegade?) that is same quality as Decelerator but without the easy-off cutaway. Also doesn't have the hard cap at top. I have one on my bird gun. Really like it.

35 would be easy to deal with I’m a 38” sleeve.

I use the Galco leather slip ons on almost everything. I can cinch the Velcro tight enough to stay in and they come in several sizes for different sizes if guns. My 28 gauge and my 375 both have them in different sizes.
