Beretta MicroCore FIELD Rubber Recoil Pad

The Beretta MicroCore FIELD Rubber Recoil Pad is an advanced recoil-absorbing accessory designed for field and hunting shotguns with straight stock endings. Crafted using Beretta’s MicroCore® technology, this pad delivers softer, lighter, and more comfortable recoil mitigation than traditional pads, enhancing shooting comfort and stability during prolonged shooting sessions.

Key Features

MicroCore® Innovation:
• Built with MicroCore® open-cell technopolymer, this recoil pad expands gradually and instantly on the shoulder, increasing contact surface and helping reduce felt recoil for a more comfortable shooting experience.

Soft & Lightweight:
• The pad is softer, lighter, and more adaptable compared with classic rubber recoil pads, allowing it to slide smoothly during shouldering and provide secure, consistent support.

Field-Ready Design:
• Engineered specifically for field shotguns such as 12 gauge and 20 gauge models with straight stock endings (~12.6 cm) — making it suitable for hunting shotguns and some sporting configurations.

Enhanced Comfort & Control:
• The pad’s material and progressive expansion help improve shoulder comfort, reduce fatigue, and promote better balance and recoil management for longer shooting sessions.

Easy Replacement:
• Designed as a direct replacement for worn or standard recoil pads on compatible Beretta shotguns — helping restore original ergonomics with improved performance.

Technical Specifications

Performance & Practical Use

The MicroCore FIELD recoil pad is engineered for shooters who want a noticeable improvement in recoil feel and shoulder comfort without adding significant weight or bulk to their shotgun. Its open-cell construction not only absorbs recoil impulses more effectively than standard rubber pads, but also allows the pad to conform and slightly shift during shoulder mounting — making follow-up shots more comfortable and consistent.

This pad is especially beneficial for field hunters and upland shooters who spend long days in the field with repeated shots, as it reduces felt kick and helps maintain a more comfortable shooting posture throughout extended sessions.

Best Suited For:

✔ Field and hunting shotguns with straight stocks
✔ Shooters seeking enhanced recoil reduction and comfort
✔ Replacement for worn or less effective factory pads
✔ Outdoor shooters who want improved shoulder contact

User Tips

Confirm Fitment:
Measure your stock’s butt end to ensure it fits a straight stock ending of approximately 12.6 cm, as this pad won’t fit competition-type stocks or curved stock ends.

Installation:
For a clean fit, remove the existing pad and clean the stock’s surface before mounting the new MicroCore pad. If needed, minor trimming can help perfect the fit — however, it generally installs without major gunsmithing on compatible shotguns.

Field Care:
After hunting or range sessions, wipe down the pad to remove dirt and debris and check for wear — this helps maintain performance and longevity.
