Group 1) .688-.224= .464

Group 2) .834-.224= .610

Average .537



Nice shooting, are we allowed to use that type of front rest now? I believe they made m1919 re-shoot the black rifle challenge when he used the same type of front rest.

What m1919 used is made for BR shooting and can pinch/hold your stock. I can assure you what’s in the pic is far from steady. Quite frankly it’s a POS and I usually prefer to stack a bunch of sandbags up for a more steady rest.

Damn, I'm going to use my front rest then. Last I saw was this:

Cool, I will reshoot then and use this as with that bag it won’t pinch on my Coopers and I will take off the side bag stabilizers. Guarantee it will help as at least I will have finer height adjustment which I didn’t have with a block of wood and a sand bag stapled to it, or stacked sand bags. 😀

Holy Schidt!!!

Of all the underhanded, dispicable, rotten, detestable things a rifleman could do...

Pulling out that fine piece of precision gear for shooting tiny groups like those bench rest guys use has got to be up there at the top!

Somebody get ahold of Alyssa Milano, I think she'd wanna hear about this.

LOL....
I can personally attest to that front rest being a rickety POS that gets made fun of often

Short of your rifle being locked in one of those 60lb $900 benchrest setups.. who cares??? Just shoot the damn challenge and have some fun


She never made it past the bedroom door, what was she aiming for...?

Haha!!

F-Class....I'm not a bench rest shooter....but I assume that stands for Fu%$# POS rest?

Mucho credit to shooter 71 for the build and to rob for the trigger work

What we cant see is the mechanical front rest inside the bag laugh. All jokes aside, I made one of my longest shots off my day pack. Hunting in the deschutes canyons. That shot was 648 yards. 1 shot, you know the rest of the saying... sorry I was confused about the front rest. That made my day, if they are allowed. I've been fu cling around with these damn sandbags, thinking the front rests were not allowed sick

That was my understanding too. From page 1 post 1

The rifle can be shot from any position as long as the shooter is supporting the rifle. Bipods, slings, and rear bags are ok to use. NO bench rest, lead sleds, or machine rest may be used.

My bad if I misinterpreted.

Count it, Don’t count it... no sweat off my back.

That front rest is hardly what I would consider to be a benchrest or machine rest. Comparing a $25 rest like mine to a $150 Rock BR... may not be the best angle.

Best advice I could give is to send schane an action, stock, and barrel..... go down to Big 5 and get a $25 benchrest and *poof*! 1/2” groups all day long!

It started with the same rules as the black rifle challenge and it allowed bulls bags so I really don't care.

Just like elementary school. People making fun of my name and nobody can figure out the rules to the stupid game.





I’m going back to the brass thread.
