Those Looking For a Rifle Rest

I have been trying to use my sand bags, bipod, and stock rest to zero my varmint AR but it is kind of a pain.

I saw a guy using this rest for his bolt action the other day:


It is a Shooters Ridge - Zero Kick Shooting Rest

I took it to the range yesterday to play with the long range AR and my carbine.

The only issue with the ARs is that you need a 10 round mag or it hits the weight and also you need to back the rifle up enough to have the pistol grip clear the weight.

Other then those two adjustments I had "Zero" issues sighting in the rifles from 100-300.

BTW the Wolf 55 gain steel cased ammo held less then a 2" group with me using the rest and the Millet DMS-1.

Now I need to learn how to use a reticle with mildots and hashmarks.

PS I forgot to mention that this rest cost about $129 compared to the Caldwell LeadSled which is almost $100 more and earlier versions don't have a rear stock adjustment.
