I use a lot of Decelerators. I wouldn't take one of the others even if it had money taped to it. For a lightweight pad, I use pieces cut from foam floor pads. Easdy to work with, weighs nothing, and very effective as a recoil absorber. The downsides are they degrade with exposure to UV (leave your rifle out in the sun for five years and the pad will start to crumble.), and they will take a set when the rifle is stood butt down. I use them on MS and BR rifles where weight is a consideration. GD

Most of my rifles have Decelerators. Only two rifles, both .338 Win. mags have Limbsavers and they have turned into some kind of goo. I'll replace them with Decelerators.
