Re: portable standing rifle rest?

There are several long posts on here somewhere about shooting sticks. If that's what he's looking for. Boulder, do a search and I think you will come up with tons of good posts.

Chapuis, I totally misunderstood the question. Also, I wasn't condemning them at all, merely stating that if he is simply wanting to test rifles OFF the bench {which is what I thought incorrectly was going on}, the sitting position is very accurate and it does not introduce
"bench harmonics" that screw up the zero of some rifles when they are thereafter shot from field positions.

Regardless, there is no way I could ever use sticks except on a range as in the field I'd have to carry them all by my lonesome self, hunting alone as I do in heavily-timbered, mountainous country, with no one to pack anything around but me, and such appendages like sticks would be dumped at the earliest convenience, such as at the from door of the house as I head out...
