John Farbrother - 2018 BFTA & WFTC Springer champion - briefly shares 3 popular Rifle Rests and how they can be used for alternative means.

...

Once again, we are looking at an essential piece of kit; a Rifle Maintenance Rest.

These rests have a multitude of uses and generally offer greater ease of cleaning intricate areas of the Rifle whilst being able to use both hands to do so. 

Below, I have highlighted a few popular, must-have options.

 

TIPTON GUN BUTLER

This is a great example of a solid Rifle Rest that also provides a brilliant amount of storage of your favorite cleaning equipment, screws and items removed from the rifle during the cleaning process.

TIPTON GUN VISE

The Tipton Gun Vise not only serves the purpose of becoming a 'third hand' during cleaning and gunsmithing but also aids in the mounting of scopes and accessories, which is made easy as you once again have both hands free to correctly and safely mount these items.

CALDWELL LEAD SLED 3 SHOOTING REST

Another highly popular and versatile Rest is the Caldwell Lead Sled 3 Shooting Rest. Not only does this rest reduce recoil by up to 95% and act as a great vise for gun maintenance, but as well, this is a very stable rest that provides a stable and accurate zeroing platform.
