The NT Big Game Rifle Club is in the process of designing a stand-up rest for sighting/regulating up to Group 3 Nitro firearms, with padded adjustable-height forward-hand and elbow rests and a hip support. The unit has to be solid enough to remain relatively immovable under heavy recoil, so it is not surprising that 4x2 hardwood and threaded steel rod is looking like the materials of choice!

When we get this done, design details will be posted here FYI.

Please do. If on a new specific thread, will make it a sticky on one of the forums. A coolection of suitable designs would be a useful resource.

(edited) ACTUALLY THIS THREAD IS FINE AS WELL, seeing the title.

We had some photos or were supposed to have some of a H&H standing shooting rest used by the gunmaker but I think the photos were small or did not really show the rest well enough??? From memory anyway. I remember not being satisfied at the result at the time.
