This may be a pu**y thing to ask but I was curious what is the best recoil pad to get to absorb the felt recoil. I have a mossberg 500 12 gauge

Not a pu**y thing to ask at all. I shot 2 boxes of 3 inch slug through a 500 sighting it in and my shoulder felt it the next day. For a recoil pad I know that limbsaver makes one and from what i hear they are a good product.

Limbsaver. Your shoulder will thank you for it.

Here are the two best;

Hope this helps

I put a limbsaver on my mossberg 500 12, what a big improvement.

I just got one for my 30-06. Pachmayr worked well for me and cost less than $10.00.

get either a Limbsaver or a Pachmayr Decalator

X2 what he said.Don't have any experience with the limbsaver,But the decelerator will definitely work.

i shoot a 30-06 and use a limbsiver. kicks like a .243 or even less.

Limbsaver and Pachmyer, are the big name ones. There are some others too that work very well also.
