| Jay, the KICK-EEZ pad comes with plugs to fill the screw holes. Cut them to the right length and the hole in not objectionable.
How about a Pachmyer Decelerator? It comes in .5 & 1" thicknesses, choice of black, brown and now red color. |

| Pachmayer sells a pre-fit decelerator for the guide gun. The holes on mine lined up exactly with the originals. |

| Does anyone know if the pre-fit pad that Pachmayr make for the guide gun will fit my 336? |

| Just be sure you know where your screwdriver bit is after installing the new pad! Seriously, I read somewhere on the net of a guy who inadvertantly left a bit in each hole (thought they had fallen on the floor). According to him major pain when he touched off the heavy hitter 45-70 loads. I can't imagine how that would feel but it does make me wince. Sean |

| I forgot to add that I had tried a pre-fit decelerator that once installed was actually to small. Maybe I could order a larger non pre-fit and just have it fit to the stock?
Have any of you guys seen the limb saver pads? Are they any good?
Thanks for the valuable info guys.

| I've got the limbsaver on both a 10 guage and an old 06 for length and I really like them!

| Gentlemen,
This topic has been discussed at length over at Marlin Talk. I will vouch for the effectiveness of the Limb-Saver from Sims Vibration Laboratories. I purchased the pre-fit model for the Marlin 444, and it fit nearly perfectly on my 1895G. I did have to plug and re-drill one hole.
The difference it makes is night and day...I believe they also are making a grind to fit model as well. It's worth taking a look at. |

| The Limb Saver took the pepper out of my .375 H&H. I used one of the prefitted pads Brownell's sells and it fits almost perfectly. |
