Duration: 8:24

This video from Ballistics Lab details the development and benefits of their 'Backstop' recoil pad, designed as an upgrade for Fierce rifles. It contrasts the Backstop's performance with the factory-installed Limbsaver pads, highlighting improved recoil absorption, smoother recoil impulse, and better view-through-scope for impact spotting. The Backstop pad utilizes a dual-layer lattice structure with air pockets for recoil management and features a patented 'Throne' component to prevent deformation during long-term storage.

Quick Summary

The Backstop recoil pad, developed by Ballistics Lab, offers an upgrade over the Limbsaver pads found on Fierce rifles. Its dual-layer lattice structure with air pockets and a patented 'Throne' component provide superior recoil absorption, a smoother impulse, and prevent deformation during storage, leading to better impact spotting and shoulder comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

What recoil pads do Fierce rifles typically come with?

Fierce rifles are generally equipped with Limbsaver recoil pads. While considered a premium option compared to many factory alternatives, the video suggests that the Backstop recoil pad offers further improvements in recoil management and shooting experience.

How does the Backstop recoil pad improve the shooting experience?

The Backstop recoil pad provides a smoother recoil impulse, reducing the sharp initial spike that can be felt on the shoulder. This smoother transition also helps maintain a clearer view through the scope, allowing shooters to more easily spot their impact.

What is the unique design of the Backstop recoil pad?

The Backstop recoil pad features a dual-layer lattice structure with air pockets. The upper layer absorbs initial recoil, while the lower 'crush zone' manages peak impact. It also includes a patented 'Throne' component to prevent deformation during storage.

Can the Backstop recoil pad be customized for different firearms?

Yes, the Backstop recoil pad is customized based on the specific firearm, including its weight, the caliber of ammunition used (e.g., 6.5 Creedmoor vs. 300 Win Mag), and whether a muzzle brake or suppressor is employed.
