Default Using carpet as a backstop?

Hey all,

I read a while back (somewhere) that someone was using a vertical piece of carpet as a backstop behind their target. I was previously using a pile of hay bales, but recently got rid of the stinking wet mess.

I'd like to use an 8' x 8' section of carpet, stretched out over a frame of 2x4's and held vertically in place. How many layers of carpet would I need, and what type of carpet would be the best to use?

Kindest Regards,
