    I fitted some to a 22. There's nice obviously when sling removed, no protrusions. The annoying thing is mine can fully rotate which surprisingly is easy to occur. Then when you hoist the rifle...

    And if your brand spanking new doesn't shoot and you end up taking it back best not to say "it won't shoot handloads either". IIRC either my last Sako or CZ stated warranty void if using handloads.
