You may want to do what I did, when putting a pad on my GH Parker. I called Silvers in England and ordered an Orange and a Red. The lady I talked to was very nice and helpful. Even with postage (it was 15 yrs. ago) the total cost was about the same as I would have paid a dealer here.
When I put each pad next to the wood of the butt stock, the gun told me the Orange pad looked best. I did know that Parker Bros. most often used the Orange, so i was pleased.
However. on an English 'Best' I think you might find ether color. A very dark walnut stock might call for a red pad.
Best of luck and as always we'd like to see photos when it's on.
