Pachmayr RP200 Black Base Rifle Pad

• 0.5″ profile: The slim pad adds recoil cushioning without noticeably increasing length of pull, which suits light rifles and compact field setups.
• Stippled face texture: The textured rear surface helps the rifle seat consistently on the shoulder while still mounting quickly from field positions.
• Black base construction: The clean black-base look suits practical hunting rifles and gives the buttstock extra protection against everyday knocks and wear.
• Ground-to-fit design: The pad is made to be shaped to the stock, allowing a neater installation and a closer match to the rifle’s butt profile.
• Made in USA: Domestic manufacture and Pachmayr’s long focus on recoil-control accessories make it a dependable choice for routine rifle use.

About the Pachmayr Accessories Series

Pachmayr Accessories covers a broad range of shooting components built around practical handling improvements rather than cosmetic changes alone. The series includes recoil pads for rifles and shotguns, along with grip options for handguns, revolvers and some rifle platforms, giving shooters a consistent source for fit, control and recoil-management parts. A defining part of the line is Pachmayr’s long-standing work with recoil pad designs dating back to 1949, which established the brand as a familiar name for replacement pads used on sporting and utility firearms.

Within the series, the emphasis is on straightforward function: materials and shapes intended to improve purchase, soften felt recoil and protect the firearm where it contacts the shooter or the shoulder. Some products focus on classic field use, while others are aimed at modern tactical or range applications. That makes the series relevant to hunters, casual rifle shooters and gunsmiths alike. Across the range, practical fit, familiar handling and durable construction are the common themes, whether the product is a recoil pad for a varmint rifle or a grip designed to improve control on a working handgun.

About the Pachmayr RP200 Black Base Rifle Pad

The Pachmayr RP200 Black Base Rifle Pad is a field-style recoil pad built for shooters who want a simple, low-profile replacement pad that improves comfort without making the rifle feel bulky at the shoulder. Its 0.5″ thickness keeps the butt end trim, which is especially useful on lighter rifles, rimfires and varmint rifles where preserving the original handling balance matters as much as adding cushioning. Instead of turning the stock into a longer, softer setup, the RP200 keeps the rifle quick to mount and easy to carry.

The pad uses a stippled face texture, giving the butt a controlled, non-slick contact surface. In practice, that helps the rifle settle into the shoulder with less shifting during the shot while still allowing a clean mount from standing or improvised field positions. Pachmayr also describes the RP200 as an economic design in a quick-mounting shape, so it suits working rifles that need practical recoil control and stock protection more than added bulk or decorative styling.

This version uses a black base and a medium-size field pattern, with dimensions of 5.40” x 1.85”. Because it is a ground-to-fit pad, it is intended to be shaped to the stock during installation for a cleaner final profile. That makes it a sensible choice for refurbishing an older rifle, replacing a worn factory pad or finishing a custom stock with a pad that keeps the rifle practical and understated.

About Pachmayr

Pachmayr was founded by Frank Pachmayr in 1929 and built its reputation around firearm accessories that improve handling and shooting comfort. The company introduced its first recoil pad in 1949, a product category that remains central to the brand, and later expanded into rubber handgun grips in the early 1960s. Today, Pachmayr is known for recoil pads, handgun grips, gunsmithing tools and related shooting accessories, with product families that cover both traditional sporting firearms and more modern platforms.

The brand became part of Lyman in 1996, linking Pachmayr’s long accessory history with a larger shooting-equipment group. Pachmayr is also closely associated with Decelerator material in recoil-reducing products, reflecting its long focus on practical recoil management. Its manufacturing plant relocated to Prescott Valley, Arizona, in 2014, while the company’s earlier custom gun shop was based in Los Angeles, California.
