It's actually my son's (Christopher Lionel) prototype rest, designed for air rifle / rimfire BR.
The "AR-250"
He designed and made 3 prototype units by himself with his teamwork, I only helped him to make sure the rest and the details are Ok.
1. It's inexpensive (I was told it would be under $700 price range, shipped),
2. It's light and compact, pivot head, with a large retractable column that can be locked very securely.
3. It has extra wide MOA travel in the joystick and also very smooth.
Chris sent two prototype units to Pilzen 2023 and one to Larry for input and feedback.
I was told that someone (Fady from Lebanon) won the 50m Unlimited and set a new world record in Pilzen 2023 using this rest for the first time.
Another one (Bruno/Fabiene Delatre) use the rest and placed 6th in the LV/HV air rifle match.
Probably others, I do not know exactly, yet.
For me that's a sign/proof that the rest works as expected.
A proud father,

Especially the horizontal.
According to his calculation, I don't remember with the numbers, it will cover most air rifle and rimfire targets with some spare.
SEB,
Thank you.
FYI, the greatest elevation change is on the 100m targets (designated as the A33, is 14” wide by 44” tall). The current solution is to make a wide wedge to slide under the rear bag to be able to shoot the bottom bull.
Example:
Target A33 100 Yard Reduction of 300 Meter SmallBore Three Bullseye NRA - Freeland's Sports LLC
A 33 100 Yard Reduction of 300 Meter Small Bore Three Bullseye Official NRA Target Size: 14 X 42 Type: Tag Board Quantity: 100
If your son can confirm the new joystick windage and elevation ranges, it would be a benefit for shooters in deciding what specific SEB rest to purchase.
Best Regards,
Ken

At 100 meters will cover approx 79 inches (200cm+) side to side and 40 inches (100cm+) vertically.
Assuming CTC/ distance between front bag and rear bag 60 cm.

Did not like the form factor to it, i feel it is too small. The person that was showing off the rest.. was himself using a NEO-X instead of it.. As for me.. I use a Rodzilla Rest now a days
Thanks.......I've been looking at the Rodzilla Rest also.
