[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1265238, member: 74902"] Midway USA has several good shooting mats. The thicker ones are nicer. I have used one for a few years and like it. [url]https://www.midwayusa.com/product/939342825/midwayusa-pro-series-gen-2-competition-shooting-mat[/url] You don't mention the actual cartridge your are shootin, such as 300 Win Mag, etc. But, for recoil in the prone position... everyone will tell you to get a brake. Another thing that helps with heavy recoiling rifles from prone is to not get your whole body too low on the ground. This tends to drive the recoil into the collar bone sometimes. I shoot prone by getting my chest up off the ground some this allows the butt to rest more into the shoulder like it does from a standing position and helps me handle the recoil better. I just use a little taller bipod and taller rear bag to get the gun up off the ground a little more. [/QUOTE]
