Does anyone have a picture of the lower rifle mount? The internet is bereft of any photos in that area.

The book picture isn't much help, and mounting it in the direction it shows seems to angle the rifle butt incorrectly.

I would probably take the mat out and locate it and drill the holes. I would put the mat back in and bolt bracket on top of it. I think you would get a cleaner cut. I would also cut the foam out but not the outer part. You can cut corner to corner like X and you will have material you could wrap around and glue so you have a nice finished edge.. mine looks like they did it with an ax. I will be replacing both of my front mats and the passenger side looks way worse.

My 10.5 and 11.5 barrels won’t reach the upper mount. On top of the mat is what I was thinking! I will do the same thing when I get my new mats and when my truck runs. Hahahaha non runners you gotta love them
I don’t think you got yours low enough it doesn’t seem to be in that brake line. You are 1” 1/2” high compared to mine. Doesn’t mean that mine is in the right place
