I have tryed to replace mine an they is an stell plate that will mess the fit of the recoil pad . the best way I have have found is to use an slip on from Limbsavers . works the best.
I have a Pachmyer Decelerator recoil pad on my 700 LSS.

This pad works well on the 338 RUM and I think it looks good
as well. The Limbsaver recoil pad was not out on the market when I had this done but I understand they are also a great recoil pad.
The stock pad will have to be chiseled off and cleaned up before gluing and fitting a limbsaver pad. If you don't have the skills, experience, and equipment to do this job I HIGHLY recommend you have a quality smith do the job!!!
