Have any of you used any of the 'pre-fit' recoil pads for a Ruger #1 - like a Sims Limbsaver or Decelerator? I am wondering how well these fit or should I plan on using a grind-to-fit? I do not plan on shortening the LOP - just replace the existing pad. Thanks. NorthGaAire NorthGaAire | ||

Do they make a pre-fit Decelerator for the #1? I have looked, but never seen one(but sometimes I forget to use my eyes while looking).

NorthGaAire I have installed pre-fit Limbsavers on two of my #1's .. They were not 100% and I had to fill and re-drill one of the original holes they are close enough for me..If anything I have enough extra pad to make a perfect fit.. | |||

The prefit Decelerator for my Marlin 1895 wasn't so I used it for a grind-to-fit project on another rifle. Were it my No.1 I'd have a gunsmith install a proper grind-to-fit job. I'd pass on the Limbsaver too; the one I put on my Marlin certainly does its job but it's kinda gooey and collects fibers from the carpet on the floor of the safe. I'll use a Decelerator when I replace it. | |||

Ruger kept changing the stocks on the Ruger No 1's, that's why the Limbsaver's don;t always fit exactly but the one you want is probably 10001. Suggest you download the template from the Limbsaver web site and test it on your stock. | |||

Pachmayr lists the #01703 will fit the Ruger Red label. Kickeez lists the #KZ108 will fit the Ruger Red label, Ruger Number 1, Browning Citori/BAR If you match up your stock dimensions with the pad templates you get pretty close. NorthGaAire | |||

FWIW-- I put the KZ108 on the Ruger #1 in .450/400 and it fit nicely. NorthGaAire | |||

I put a Limbsaver on a No. 45/70 that was loaded to 55# of free recoil. (It helped a lot. "Bitte, trinks du nicht das Wasser. Dahin haben die Kuhen gesheissen." | |||
