A lot of guys also use those mats you put under your sleeping bag. Voodoo imports mostly good stuff. I have a US Peacekeeper, but I don't remember using it. I just like getting dirty.

My favorite shooting mat for Appleseed is an old area rug, lol.

The thing about a lot of mats is that they aren't wide enough to fit your whole body on when in a proper prone position. There are exceptions of course. Also, many have a slick PVC type coating on the parts where your elbows and knees touch the mat, which causes them to slip around and makes it harder to build a good position.

I suppose the upside to an actual commercial shooting mat is that it will usually have a nice handle and shoulder strap, making it easier to carry.

I have one of the rifle cases that opens up into a shooting mat -- I believe its the Voodoo brand. I don't use it as a mat anymore because I tend to track dirt and dust onto my mats... not stuff I want inside my rifle case.
