Thanks for the tip on recoilpad, 470 Mbogo!
Hello.
I've just fixed a Pachmayr "Triple Mag. Field 990" to my lightweight 416 Taylor.
After I've hunted with the rifle for two weeks now, shooting two moose, I must highly recomand it. That pad really makes my Taylor a pussy.
I will fast buy two more. One for my 338 RUM, and one for my 460 Wby. [Wink]

460wby,

I have the Pachmayr Decelerator on my .450 Ackley, I think like you it is a great recoil pad for the price.

I also thought the Decelerator on my 460wby. was the best, until I got a Triple Mag.!! [Big Grin]

Hi Arild,
I'm glad that you've tried it and liked it. It is the best information that I can pass on to shooters with big bore rifles. You did real well getting 2 Moose. Send me a couple of pictures when you get a chance.

BER007,
The triple X F990 pad is a couple of steps up from the regular decelerator for tamming recoil. You would love one on your 450 Ackley which is a very solid recoiling gun depending on the weight you've built it to. Mine was 10 lbs even and the triple X pad worked great on it.

Take good care

I'd love to send you foto's, but I'm affraid you'll laught your breath out when you see them. [Razz]
It was only two calfs (so far, it's not over yet).
One on 63Kg, and one on 71Kg. so i did'nt exactly used the whole film on them, if you know what I mean. [Roll Eyes]
My hunting team has a permit for 1 bull, 3 calfs, 3 cows, and 2 youngsters (1,5 year old).

But nice of you to show me interrest, though.
And I promisse you; if I get a trophy you'll get a picture.
I'm affraid a large trophy here in Norway, still will make you laught if you compare it with the bulls in the Yukon. But, it's the biggest we have so........... [Wink]
