I like the Limbsaver brand.
See if they make a "precision fit" for your model.

Limbsaver is very good, also Kick EEZ sells a low drag profile that works well. And the very effective slip on Shooters friend.

I called Kickeez yesterday, spoke to a real nice lady and she researched the correct pad for Browning Gold 10. I have one on the way. I dont remember what model # it was.

Got my Kickeez pad for my Browning Gold 10 gauge in the mail today(Monday). I ordered it on Friday, at 4pm. The lady said she was fixing to put it in the mail and I thought "yeah right". But she did what she said, now that is customer service.

Matches at the comb and on the sides perfectly. Just a little long on the heel (about an 8th of an inch). I am gonna grind it down with a dremel tonite.
I was initially expecting this gun to kick like a beast even before the pad was installed but that was not the case, more like "push". It does not hurt any worse than my encore.
Installing the pad definitley helped with the recoil that was there. I have limbsavers on all my other guns, but they will soon be replaced with Kickeez. They appear to be made of a super rubber and are softer than the limbsaver. 
I am not disappointed at all in this pad. Try one and feel the difference, I know y'all will like them.

Good Luck and God Bless

KZ 115 I was a little longer than an 1/8th at heel. I put the pad on the stock and tightened it down. Then I used a razor knife and traced (etched) the bottom of the pad. Then I took the pad off and took a piece of chalk and rubbed it over the etching (where it will show up. The I ground off the part that was too long with a bench grinder. I am not kidding this took maybe 4 or 5 minutes including putting the pad back on. Looks great and you can hardly tell that I had to grind it. This is very simple.

Good luck and God bless

The kickeez are gravy to grind for those wondering..bolt the oversized on..trace stock around and if you have access to a belt sander they are very easy to form..awesome recoil pad...pricey but quality..
