My neighbor couldn't see paying the $$$ for a benchrest rest, so he made this one. What do you think? He's thinking of offering these for sale for $500. I told him he needed to offer them in football colors, but he's not too keen on those.
For 22lr this might work OK. There is a reason rests are heavy. You don't want them to move under recoil and alter the shot. You can buy a really good rest set-up for $500. My Sinclair Rest and rear bag cost a little under that. It just looks like it won't track right, even with a 22lr rifle
It was built for .22s, not for center fire. Actually, it tracks quite well. One quarter twist of the windage knob moves the reticle just under a half inch.
I'm not sure he would want to break into just front rests-- there are other issues involved in the design.
maybe you could just give him the input to make front and rear come apart and even adjust and then add some posts so users could add weights to the unit... consider it constructive criticism to help him with the design if he ever decides to make a business of it.
