I put a Decelerator on my Remington 700 in .300 Win Mag. It helps some, but I still put a stocking hat under my shooting vest when I go to the bench. I also found that using ear plugs AND a good head set help me, I think a lot of flinch is from the blast.
I just took my friend's Remington 700 in .300 Ultra Mag to my gunsmith, he recommended a Limbsaver and I had him install it. According to him, it was the best recoil pad he's used. We haven't fired it yet, but it's a whole lot better than that piece of tire that Remington puts on from the factory.
I would put an after market recoil pad on anything from a .30-06 or 7 mag. on up, unless it were a collector and I wanted to keep it original. I'd never consider a muzzle break again, but that's just my personal opinion.
