I am about to get a recoil pad installed on the new rifle. I am leaning toward the Limbsaver. Any advice or anything better?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Limbsaver recoil pads, do you recommend them?

Yes.
They are the ONLY aftermarket pad I'll use from now on. Excellent recoil softening and customer service (if ever needed).

I prefer Kick-eze if they are still around.

Get one. They work. Why abuse your bones & tendons with that 21st century technology available?

I have them on Ruger's, Tikka's, H&R, Rem rifles. They are very good

Hi,
I've shot a Limbsaver on an 870 Express (factory synthetic stock) with 3" waterfowl loads, and while it wasn't as comfortable as an autoloader, the pad did a pretty good job of taming the bite compared to the factory pad on the same stock on my own 870 Express. I've got a Kick-Eze on an upland bird gun, a 20 ga L.C. Smith SxS, and you can barely feel it go off compared to the traditional Pachmayr pad it had before. But I've never been able to do a head to head with both pads and one gun, so for now I can only say they've both worked well for me and one probably won't go wrong with either.

Short answer - YES! Long answer - HE** YES!
I couldn't shoot my 45-70 without it.

Personally I think they are too soft. The Pachmayer Decelerator is just a tad firmer and a lot more effective.
