Recoil Pad ?
 

I just got my new Browning BPS 10 ga. I also have a 870 supermag 12 ga that I am going to keep for a back up gun. I' m not looking forward to putting a bunch of shells through these without some kind of pad. I was wondering if any of you guys have used the recoil pads that strap on your shoulder. If so, what brand and where did you get them?

I' ve never used that type of recoil pad. I wouldn' t bother. I use the Sims Vibration Lab recoil pads. Awesome!

I use the TroGlo recoil pad on my turkey gun. It realy does help when I' m sighting in the gun or working a new pattern. As far as when I' m hunting I never feel the recoil.

the only recoil pads that I ever use are the ones that come on the guns but I have heard great things about the sims vibration lab. recoil pads and I belive that I will be putting one of those on my turkey gun for next year.

Patterned my gun 2 weeks ago and the black and blue is just starting to fade. I wasn' t happy with the pattern, just got a new choke tube and some add' l loads to check out, and its back to the range in a day or two. I read somewhere to use a life vest instead of using a slip on recoil pad, and just dug one out of my boat to give it a try. I may look silly at the bench, but hopefully it will be less painful and it will definitely save a few bucks. Been lurking on this board for a few days, figured it was time to chime in with my 2 cents....

Welcome, RIStrutstopper!!

Rubidude, I use a PAST recoil pad that straps over my shoulder when I sight in and test loads. It takes a bunch of the sting out of heavy turkey loads and centerfire rifle loads. I believe mine came from www.midwayusa.com/. Hope this helps out.
