That's an original pad. I've had mine for about 25 years and it's extremely accurate and consistent with Win. 200 grain ammo. Also have a 99A saddle gun in .375 that's like new. I have another Savage barrel in 375 that I plan to make into a short carbine. Yeah, I'm a fan.
You'll love the rifle, and you STOLE IT!! I paid $700 for mine, 25 ish years ago!!!!
