Pachmayr .8'' Small Black Leather Face

The Pachmayr .8'' Small Black Leather Face recoil pad is a compact, classic choice for shooters looking to tame felt recoil without bulk. Built on the proven 752-style platform, this pad combines Decelerator material—designed to absorb and dissipate recoil energy—with a hard heel insert that lets the pad glide smoothly over your clothing during mounting and movement. It's the kind of no-nonsense upgrade that works whether you're running a rifle at the bench, in the field, or at the range.

The leather face and compact .8'' profile make this pad practical for hunters and shooters who don't want an oversized cheekrest or uncomfortable material against their shoulder. The hard heel insert is a genuine detail: it prevents the pad from catching or binding on jackets and gear, so your shouldering and remounting stay smooth and repeatable.

If you shoot a rifle that came with a thin factory pad or a hard buttstock, or if recoil is eating into your follow-up accuracy or comfort, a quality Pachmayr pad is a straightforward solution. This small-frame version is ideal for lighter rifles, youth models, or anyone who values a sleek, traditional profile over maximum cushioning.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 752-style recoil pad?

The 752-style is a classic Pachmayr design that has been used on rifles for decades. It combines effective recoil absorption with a practical, compact profile that works on a wide range of rifle stocks.

Will this pad fit my rifle?

We've listed this as a small pad. Verify that your rifle's buttstock is sized for a .8'' pad; measure your existing pad or contact us if you're unsure about compatibility with your specific model.

How does the hard heel insert help?

The hard insert at the heel allows the pad to slide smoothly over jackets, vests, and shooting coats instead of catching on fabric. This keeps your mounting and aim point consistent between shots.
