Those who are always shooting off at the mouth usually aren't shooting straight.



Build a man a fire and he’ll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life.

too tall for kids and alot of adults, and if you are shooting slightly down hill at 100, you will need a 3/4" spacer under the rear bag.

I think that they make a shorter model for tables.

Best option, I had to remove the wheel on mine because it was too tall.

If you can go on benchrest central or accurateshooter and put up a want to buy on a used Hart or Sinclair rest, you will be very happy with the purchase and pass it down to your kids.

I have a plastic MTM rest that I have shot MOA groups out to 240yds. It seems steady when I am shooting off of it but I sometimes wonder if I could do better and how much better with a different set up. I almost bought a Bald Eagle rest the other day and was thinking about a Bullsbag but I generally shoot factory ammo so if I'm not going all out with reloading too, I don't know if the cost is justified.My bench is solid and to help I even ratchet strap the rest itself to the bench.
