Pachmayr .80'' Medium Black Leather Face

The Pachmayr .80'' Medium Black Leather Face recoil pad is a straightforward, no-nonsense solution for taming felt recoil on rifle stocks. Built from Pachmayr's time-tested Decelerator rubber compound, this pad delivers the cushioning shooters have relied on for decades—smooth sidewalls with internal tapered ribbing that absorbs impact energy while maintaining a clean appearance on your rifle. Whether you're shooting a hard-kicking magnum or just prefer consistent, comfortable shouldering, a quality recoil pad makes the difference between a pleasant range session and one that leaves your shoulder sore.

The medium size (0.80'' thick, 5.50'' wide) fits a wide variety of rifle stocks and is sized to match many factory dimensions without requiring extensive gunsmithing. The solid base construction and absence of white edge lines give the pad a finished, integrated look once installed. This is the kind of straightforward upgrade that doesn't draw attention but definitely gets noticed when you're behind the gun—especially on rifles known for significant recoil.

If you're building or maintaining a rifle for hunting, long-range shooting, or general range work, a Pachmayr Decelerator pad is a proven choice. It's the kind of part that quietly improves your shooting experience without fuss or complexity. Installation will require professional gunsmithing or careful DIY work, depending on your stock and skill level.
