What's wrong with the factory pad?
From the outside, most recoil pads appear to have a soft ½-inch slab of rubber. But take one off a MDT HNT26 and the story changes completely. Beneath the surface, you’ll find a rigid plastic shell wrapped in a thin layer of rubber.
That hard backing matters. Instead of evenly distributing recoil across your shoulder, it creates concentrated pressure points. By reducing the effective contact area, it drives up the pounds per square inch (PSI) you actually feel—making recoil feel sharper and failing to slow recoil velocity, which ruins your ability to spot your impact.
Just the Right Squish
Unlike factory recoil pads, the Backstop Recoil Pad is custom tuned to your cartridge. We ask what cartridge you use, any muzzle devices on your rifle, and rifle weight, then calculate your recoil level and send you the right pad for your setup. The recoil reduction is noticeable!
