The Pachmayr D752B Decelerator Old English Recoil Pad (SKU 01401) is a large-size, grind-to-fit shotgun recoil pad designed to attenuate peak recoil shock while maintaining smooth firearm handling. Constructed from Pachmayr’s proprietary Decelerator super-soft rubber blend over a skeletonised internal core, this pad absorbs felt recoil on both shotguns and sporting rifles. It features a classic Old English leather-look stippled face with rounded heel and toe contours, engineered specifically to prevent clothing snag during rapid gun mounts.

Who is the Pachmayr D752B Decelerator Old English Recoil Pad for?

• Skeet and sporting clays shooters — benefits from rounded heel and toe edges on this 1.00-inch-thick grind-to-fit recoil pad, preventing clothing drag during fast, repetitive mounting sequences.
• Upland bird hunters shooting traditional shotguns — utilizes the 8.0 oz Decelerator rubber construction to cushion heavy field loads while preserving classic aesthetics with a stippled leather-look face.
• Shooters custom-fitting traditional wood or synthetic stocks — requires the generous 5.75 x 1.92 inch pre-ground dimensions of this large shotgun recoil pad to profile down to larger buttstock footprints.

Less suitable for: Buttstocks with footprint dimensions smaller than 5.3 x 1.68 inches or 5.5 x 1.80 inches, where grinding down a large 5.75 x 1.92 inch pad risks exposing the internal baseplate (a small or medium grind-to-fit recoil pad is recommended instead), or setups where adding 1.00 inch to the length of pull is undesirable without shortening the stock.
