Pachmayr Model D200B, .5'' Thick, Stippled, Black
The Pachmayr Model D200B is a low-profile recoil pad built for shooters who value clean lines and reliable performance on rimfire and light-recoil rifles. At half an inch thick, this pad sits close to the rifle without the bulk of heavier alternatives—ideal for hunters and sport shooters who want minimal profile change while still gaining recoil management and shouldering security. The stippled texture molded into the face provides tactile grip and a modern look that works across a range of rifle styles.
Built from Decelerator rubber, this pad is engineered to absorb recoil energy and reduce felt kick, making follow-up shots faster and more controlled. The gently concave face design helps keep your rifle stable against your shoulder in the field, cutting down on unwanted shift during mounting and aiming. The solid black base—no white stripe or edge line—gives you a clean, integrated appearance that blends with virtually any stock finish.
If you run a lightweight rimfire, a classic .22, or any rifle where low recoil padding is the goal, the D200B delivers practical protection without adding unnecessary bulk. The stippled surface grips your shoulder reliably in wet or cold conditions, and the compact profile means less to snag in a shooting coat or hunting pack.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this recoil pad suitable for rimfire rifles?
Yes—the Model D200B was designed specifically for rimfire and other low-recoil firearms, making it an ideal fit for .22s and similar low-kick platforms.
How thick is the Pachmayr D200B pad?
The D200B measures 0.5 inches thick, keeping it low-profile so it doesn't dramatically change the length of pull or the rifle's balance.
What does the stippled surface do?
The stippled texture provides tactile grip to prevent your rifle from slipping during shouldering, particularly useful in wet or cold field conditions. It also offers a modern appearance compared to smooth pad finishes.
Will this pad show wear or discoloration over time?
The solid black finish and Decelerator rubber material resist visible wear better than lighter-colored pads. There is no white stripe or edge line that could show marks as readily.
