Thread: Nelson (or other areas) Benchrest Shooting

Some of our Saxton Field guys shoot Sporter class.
Apparently my chassis option puts me out of that class now.
Personally...I like front rests.
Bipods? I have one on my CZ455 but yet to shoot it.
Hardy Rifles supplied the RR-EO1 carbon fibre bipod.
It's a nice wee rifle though, and will be good for varmints too.
CZ455 'American' (I think), with 20" bull barrel. Should be fine for Sporter Class.
Nikko Stirling 8-24x50 scope. Not really 'big' enough magnification wise (hey, I'm 76 and old eyes need a lot of help!). But I bought what I could afford.
However...no one in our group is now using a bipod. The front rest does make life a bit easier...but it is a lot more gear/weight to lug around.
