Title: Limbsaver Airtech vs Classic
Post by: Jamr on May 15, 2016, 08:31:05 PM: Hi folks,

I need to order a new recoil pad for my Winchester M70 7mm. I am pretty set on orering a limbsaver pad but want to know of follow experience with both pads, good and bad. My rifle is the classic stainless with synthetic stock. I have never had a problem with recoil it's just time to replace the stock pad.

Thanks!

I felt that it was much softer, which I did not mind, however there was not much rigidity, and it felt like it moved too much against my shoulder. I was in the position where I could try them both before deciding, so I was fortunate with that. I chose the standard slip-on pad because it held better to my shoulder and did not seem to move as much.
