The Kick-Eez Magnum Recoil Pad Black is a heavy-duty recoil pad designed for shooters using powerful, hard-recoiling rifles and shotguns. Manufactured using genuine Sorbothane, a specialist shock-absorbing material, it helps dampen felt recoil and vibration while improving shoulder comfort during demanding shooting sessions.
Featuring an extra-thick 35mm profile, the Magnum recoil pad provides substantial cushioning for firearms that generate higher levels of recoil. Its grind-to-fit construction allows the pad to be shaped to the profile of a compatible gun stock, making it a practical upgrade for shooters seeking improved recoil management without compromising the importance of correct stock fit.

35MM THICKNESS & LENGTH OF PULL
The Kick-Eez Magnum recoil pad is offered here in a single nominal 35mm thickness, making it thicker than the standard All Purpose, Sporting Clay and Trap options listed in the Bamfords range.
WHY CHOOSE A THICKER RECOIL PAD?
A thicker recoil pad provides additional cushioning material between the gun stock and the shooter's shoulder. This can be beneficial when shooting firearms that produce substantial recoil.
However, greater thickness does not automatically mean a better fit. Stock dimensions and shooting position remain important considerations.
HOW DOES 35MM AFFECT LENGTH OF PULL?
Length of pull is the distance between the trigger and the rear of the recoil pad. Replacing an existing pad with a thicker one can increase this distance.
For example, replacing a 20mm pad with a 35mm pad would increase the overall stock length by approximately 15mm, assuming no other changes are made.
IS 35MM SUITABLE FOR EVERY SHOOTER?
No. The Magnum's additional thickness is useful only where the resulting stock fit remains appropriate. If the stock is already too long, fitting a thicker pad may make the firearm less comfortable to mount and shoot.
Consider the existing pad thickness and preferred length of pull before ordering.
MAGNUM DESIGN & RECOIL MANAGEMENT
The Kick-Eez Magnum is intended for shooting applications where recoil comfort is a particular priority.
HEAVY-RECOILING FIREARMS
Powerful rifles and shotguns can transmit considerable impact through the stock. A recoil pad helps cushion the contact between the buttstock and the shooter's shoulder.
The Magnum's substantial Sorbothane construction is designed to dampen this impact and improve comfort during repeated firing.
DOES THE MAGNUM REMOVE RECOIL?
No recoil pad can eliminate recoil entirely. The Magnum is designed to reduce the impact felt at the shoulder rather than change the fundamental recoil characteristics of the firearm.
COMFORT DURING EXTENDED SHOOTING
Improved cushioning can be particularly useful during range sessions or other shooting activities involving repeated shots, provided the pad is correctly fitted.
STOCK COMPATIBILITY & DIMENSIONS
The Kick-Eez Magnum Recoil Pad is a grind-to-fit design intended to be shaped to a compatible rifle or shotgun stock.
WILL IT FIT MY RIFLE OR SHOTGUN?
Compatibility depends on the length, width and shape of the buttstock, together with the existing mounting arrangement.
The pad must provide sufficient material to cover the stock before its outer profile is shaped to achieve the finished fit.
CHECKING YOUR STOCK DIMENSIONS
- Measure the overall length of the buttstock.
- Measure the width at the widest point.
- Check the existing recoil pad thickness.
- Consider the finished length of pull.
- Confirm the mounting arrangement before fitting.
WOODEN & SYNTHETIC STOCKS
The Magnum may be suitable for compatible wooden and synthetic stocks, although fitting requirements can vary between firearms.
Some installations may require additional preparation or modifications by a competent gunsmith.
FITTING & INSTALLATION GUIDE
The Kick-Eez Magnum is designed for custom fitting. It is not a guaranteed direct-fit replacement for any particular rifle or shotgun model.
BEFORE INSTALLATION
- Ensure the firearm is unloaded and safe before carrying out stock work.
- Measure the existing stock and recoil pad.
- Check the required finished length of pull.
- Confirm the mounting-hole arrangement.
- Follow the manufacturer's installation instructions.
GRIND-TO-FIT CONSTRUCTION
The pad is supplied for shaping to the profile of a compatible buttstock. Sorbothane has different working characteristics from conventional rubber, so suitable abrasive equipment and careful finishing techniques are important.
Incorrect grinding may damage the material or produce an unsuitable fit.
PROFESSIONAL GUNSMITH FITTING
We recommend professional fitting by a competent gunsmith to achieve a clean, secure installation, particularly where drilling or stock modification is required.
SORBOTHANE & RECOIL REDUCTION
Kick-Eez recoil pads use genuine Sorbothane, a specialist viscoelastic polymer designed to absorb and dissipate impact energy.
Unlike a simple rigid buttplate, the Sorbothane material provides cushioning and damping between the gun stock and the shoulder.
HOW MUCH RECOIL DOES IT REDUCE?
The amount of perceived recoil reduction depends on several factors, including the firearm, ammunition, stock fit and individual shooter.
It is not possible to guarantee a particular reduction percentage for every shooting application.
IS THE MAGNUM BETTER THAN A STANDARD RECOIL PAD?
The Magnum provides a thicker cushioning profile, making it an option worth considering for hard-recoiling firearms. However, the most suitable pad depends on the stock dimensions, intended use and preferred gun fit.
DOES RECOIL PAD THICKNESS MATTER?
Thickness can influence cushioning, but it also affects the overall stock length. Both factors should be considered when selecting a replacement pad.
MAGNUM VS OTHER KICK-EEZ RECOIL PADS
Kick-Eez offers several recoil pad designs with different profiles and intended applications. The Magnum is distinguished by its substantial thickness and emphasis on recoil cushioning.
| Model | Design | Main Application |
|---|---|---|
| Magnum | Extra-thick cushioning profile | Hard-recoiling rifles and shotguns |
| All Purpose | Conventional general-purpose profile | Versatile rifle and shotgun use |
| Sporting Clay | Approximately 45° angled heel | Sporting clays and low-gun mounting |
| Trap | Concave face | Fixed-position trap shooting |
WHICH KICK-EEZ PAD SHOULD YOU CHOOSE?
Choose the Magnum if your priority is a substantial cushioning profile for a hard-recoiling firearm and the additional thickness is compatible with your preferred stock fit.
The All Purpose model offers a more versatile profile, while the Sporting Clay and Trap designs are intended for particular shotgun mounting styles.

HOW THICK IS THE KICK-EEZ MAGNUM PAD?
The version listed here has a nominal thickness of 35mm. Check the dimensions of your existing recoil pad before ordering.
WILL THIS RECOIL PAD FIT MY RIFLE?
It may fit a compatible rifle stock, but the overall pad dimensions and mounting arrangement must be suitable. The pad is designed for custom fitting rather than guaranteed direct replacement.
CAN I USE THE MAGNUM PAD ON A SHOTGUN?
Yes, where stock dimensions and fitting requirements permit. The Magnum can be considered for compatible shotguns that generate substantial recoil.

It can. Replacing a thinner existing pad with the 35mm Magnum will generally increase the overall stock length by the difference in thickness, assuming no other modifications are made.
DOES THE MAGNUM REDUCE MORE RECOIL THAN THE ALL PURPOSE PAD?
The Magnum provides a thicker cushioning profile, but the level of perceived recoil reduction depends on the firearm, ammunition, pad fit and individual shooter. A specific improvement over the All Purpose model cannot be guaranteed.
IS THE KICK-EEZ MAGNUM MADE FROM RUBBER?
No. It uses genuine Sorbothane, a specialist viscoelastic material designed for impact and vibration damping.
DOES THE MAGNUM PAD NEED TO BE GROUND TO FIT?
Yes, in most installations. The pad is designed to be shaped to match the profile of a compatible gun stock.
CAN I FIT THIS RECOIL PAD MYSELF?
Fitting requires suitable equipment and experience. Professional gunsmith fitting is recommended for accurate shaping and secure installation.
