Picked up a new to me Citori Feather 12 ga and it needs a new pad on it. I have a Feather 20 ga that has a SC100 on it and I like it but wondering what else is out there. This will be strictly a hunting shotgun so do not want a "sticky" pad. Is there anything better than the SC100 Pachmayr?
Need a new recoil pad.

I vote for the Pachmayr Decelerator, particularly if you’re going to grind it yourself. They work easily, and look good without taking them down to a super fine grit.

Old School for me. Pachmayer has been working for almost a hundred years now. I have a kick-eeze and like it, too. Paying more than $50 for a bit of rubber seems like madness to me. I am not falling for any marketing hype.
I'm short so all my butt stocks need cut and pad re-ground. I bought a belt sander and installation jig for less than the price of one installation by a real gunsmith. I leave the real gunsmithing to the real gunsmiths. Grinding a pad is apprentice work.

A little coat of Armor All will slick up most rubber pads.

I will only use the "Terminator" recoil pad by 100 straight products.
Thanks I gag on 40 bucks for a good pad. I'll give them a go if I like what I see, thanks for the tip. I will note the Pachmayer comes with good instructions. My SX1 pad is pretty rock hard, not that it really needs a pad.

I put a kick-eez on a shotgun and it was 'sticky' at first. After going in and out of racks at the clays course for less than one round, it wasn't any longer. I've heard of people putting talcum powder on them to accomplish the same. The pachmyr pad on my hunting rifle got too hard after just 40 years, so I replaced it with a new pachmyr pad of the same model and it worked out perfectly.
