Description
Big-bore magnums and hard-kicking rifles are a blast to shoot until your shoulder starts keeping score. The Pachmayr D750B Decelerator Field pad is built to take the sting out of that recoil, using the company's proprietary Decelerator rubber to soak up energy at the shot and spread it across your shoulder instead of jabbing you in one spot. Less flinch, steadier aim, and more comfortable follow-up shots are the whole point here.
What Makes the D750B Decelerator Tick
Pachmayr has been in the recoil-taming business since Frank Pachmayr built his first pad in 1948, and the Decelerator compound is the result of decades of refinement. It's engineered specifically to compress and disperse recoil rather than just sit there like a chunk of generic rubber, and it holds its feel whether you're out on a cold morning or a hot afternoon. This field-style pad measures roughly 5.5 inches long by 1.8 inches wide with a 1-inch thickness, and it adds about an inch to your length of pull.
Fit and Feel of the Decelerator Field Pad
The face wears a non-slip basketweave texture that grabs your shoulder or clothing without snagging, which helps you mount the gun the same way every time. The overall shape is a traditional field profile that looks right at home on a wood-stocked hunting rifle. It comes in black to keep things clean and classic, and the medium size covers a wide range of standard rifle stocks.
A Few Notes Before You Install It
This is a grind-to-fit pad, meaning it ships slightly oversized on purpose so it can be shaped flush to your exact stock. The kit includes two mounting screws. Plenty of handy folks tackle this at home with a belt or disc sander and a fitting jig, but if you'd rather have it come out perfectly flush, a gunsmith can knock it out quickly. Either way, the payoff is a pad that fits like it was made for your rifle and makes long sessions a lot friendlier on your shoulder.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the D750B Decelerator a grind-to-fit pad or a slip-on?
This is a grind-to-fit pad, so it comes slightly larger than your stock on purpose. The idea is to mount it, mark it, and sand it flush so it matches your buttstock exactly. That extra material is what lets you get a clean, custom look rather than a bulky slip-on fit.
Can I install the Decelerator pad myself or do I need a gunsmith?
Plenty of handy folks install these at home using a stationary belt or disc sander and a pad-fitting jig, grinding slowly to the scribed line. That said, the rubber is soft and takes a careful touch, so if you want it flush and professional the first time, a gunsmith can handle it quickly. Two mounting screws are included to attach it to the stock.
How much does this pad reduce felt recoil?
Pachmayr's Decelerator rubber is engineered to absorb and spread recoil energy at the moment of the shot, and the brand reports felt-recoil reductions of up to around 50 percent depending on the load. It's especially popular on heavy-kicking rifles where the goal is less flinching and more comfortable follow-up shots. The compound also holds its feel in both cold and hot weather.
How much length of pull will the medium D750B add?
The 1-inch-thick medium pad adds roughly an inch to your length of pull once installed. If you have a shorter stock or a lengthy pull already, it's worth measuring first to make sure the added length works for your shooting position.
