One thing I noticed after fitting the Pachmayr pad to my Mauser as shown above was that the length of pull felt slightly shorter even though the thickness of pad was no different to the ventilated pad it replaced. This was ideal as the Type A has a quite long LOP and I was tempted to shorten the stock slightly before re-padding, my stock has a small chip at the butt so thought I would shorten enough to remove this too. Fortunately I didn't and the LOP with the Pachmayr feels just right for me. It certainly made for a pleasanter shooting rifle.

Re colour, I'm opposite to KWJohnston and think the Pachmayr has a pink tinge to the red in the flesh whereas Silvers is more orange to my eyes. I agree the Pachmayr would be hard to beat if looking for felt recoil reduction.
