Limbsaver pre-fit recoil pads, do they measure up?

[canadaman30]

Looking to replace the stock(garbage) rubber but pad with a Limbsaver recoil pad. Can anybody confirm if they actually match up to the stock size according to their sizing charts?

Fit my wingmaster perfectly.

Put one on a ruger #1, it fit as well as most factory pads fit.

Cool, thanks guys, think I will give one a try, fingers crossed it fits

Put Limbsaver pads on a Tikka T3, Mossberg 930, and Benelli A300 - they all fit as well (or better than) as the original pads and greatly reduced felt recoil in all three cases.

Replace a garbage pad with a Limbsaver and you will have a different pad but still garbage.

In your view what is a better pad? I only have one Limbsaver as it came on my Ruger RSM. My preferred pad are Pachmayr pads.

Have one on an original A-bolt. It fit exactly, and it works.

The Pachmayr are, in every way, a better pad. Better looking, better compound, easier to grind. Limbsavers are sticky and grind like crap.

Amen

The limbsaver air tech pads will be more effective on recoil compared to a pachmayr. They are prefit. You cannot grind them.
The pachmayrs may look better to you. And come in different colours. Brown, black and even red I think...

I used the limbsaverM2 pad for my turknelli. It fit great and it made a huge difference in perceived recoil.

My sentiments exactly... been using Pachmayr pads since 1966.

I have a LimbSaver prefit recoil pad on a Benelli Super Sport & I'm very pleased with it.
