Ammo Block/Caddie for F-class

Mulligan

Silver $$ Contributor
I have seen a plethora of different ammo blocks/ammo caddies used in F-Class competition.
Some sit on the mat with a timer and hold all the rounds needed for a relay and some (in a wide array of designs) attach to the front rest and hold the ammo block on a flexible arm near the loading port.
What are the advantages of one over the other?

First off open or ftr?

Fclass products makes a great stand alone aluminum caddy with a timer and the caddy disassembles to save space in your range bag.

Alex makes a great wooden one with a timer.
 
Ah yes I have seen both kinds in ARA and Centerfire benchrest. I came up with a design and got flex arm and attachments. Made 2 proto types from delrin plastic then did final one in aluminum. Mine was for Papas rest on Rimfire set up. I need to now do the same for Seb rest for F Open. Have to make it to be able change holders for calibers I would be using. A good winter project. Anxious to see some pictures of designs others have made.

Guessing biggest advantage of the gooseneck one is speed of reloading as you can position it right next to the port. prob more popular with the bench rest crowd vs f class. As mentioned above, fclass products design is very nice. They killed the beeper in the timer to be compliant.
