what kind of recoil pad????????
 
What kind of recoil pad do you use? Man these shells can hirt. Anyone try the limbsaver or hiviz pads. I was told the hiviz was better.

I'd go with the limbsaver if you can. Also Bearpaw outfitters makes a neoprene slip over with an assortment of foam add ins. I used that, realitively inexpensive and deadens the blow enough.

Limbsaver. Made a noticable difference when patterning with those 3.5" bruisers.

I put one on my 870 and it made a big difference with magnum loads. If you have a Remington you could use the new R3. I think that it is also made by Limbsaver and just marketed under Remington.
JRS, What kind of stock do you have on your 870? I was looking at the R3 recoil pad, but its supposed to be for the synthetic remington stocks only. I would like to put a limbsaver pad on my old express wooden stock and need to know if theres anything that will fit. I don't want their slip on or grindable one, just one that fits right out of the package.

the pad that comes standard on the 870 express is what i use. never have really been bothered by recoil when shooting at game, never seem to notice it when im trying to fold a tom, knock a rooster outta the sky or take down a whitetail.

I put a Limbsaver on my Mossberg 935 and now I never even notice any recoil.

JRS--A gunsmith can get the right Limbsaver recoil pad for any synthetic stock, and if they don't make one that fits exactly, then they get a "grind to fit" Limbsaver. Since my Mossberg 935 is new to the market, Limbsaver hasn't made one specifically for the 935's stock, so my gunsmith got a grind to fit, and made it fit. It looks like it was custom-made for the gun, or like it originally came with the gun, however you'd like to say it. AND, IT WORKS!!!!
