Does anyone know where I could find a recoil pad that is 6 inches or more top to bottom?

Thanks for the help!

Thanks guys!

I saw some of the Galazan pads are listed at 6 inches (and come in red). Anyone know if they offer any recoil reduction or are they just hard chunks of plastic?

Silver's pads are over 6 inches. They have cavity on the back but I think most guys dont consider them too much of a recoil absorber. They are pretty hard but I like them nonetheless.

They're hard, Ruger's early red pads were softer.

That is too bad the galazan pad is hard, would have liked a red pad. Oh well, went with the x-coil pad suggested by craigster.
