Seb Neo Rest

[Nick Caprinolo]

I have a fairly new Seb Neo rest. I will try to describe my problem

Many of the rifles I shoot have stocks that are grooved on the bottom or in some cases, adapter plates with groves also. After shooting for a time, the pad on the rest gets groves indented in it. This causes they rifle to rock from side to side. Most times it will lean to the left a few degrees. I don't understand why it only leans to the left but the why does not make a difference anyway. The bag itself seems to be pretty hard and I don't know if trying to pack more sand in it will make any difference.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Use a flat block of wood and tap with a hammer to flatten the bag.

I have done that but it does not take long for it to return.

I have this problem as well. I have a Seb Neo for my guns with rails and a Farley for the ones without. That way I don't have to constantly keep reforming the small sand bag in the rest each time I go to a different rifle.

A cheaper option would be to buy the bag options from Fclass Products and just change those out.

Try taking out some sand. Make the bag softer. Just my two cents Tommy Mc

There is a rest "adaptation" so to speak. It is called "Rodzilla" or some such terminology. It is made for those people who stocks are "grooved" like yours or have the "Z-Rail" option for the Kestros stock. It is made so the rails or high spots of your groove style will ride on the edges so the "middle" does not rise which causes the flat-bottomed stocks to rock.

If your rules allow, you can switch over to "seatbelt" four-chamber bags from Seb. They have a low spot in the middle, sewn in , and the sand is adjustable on each side, allowing adjustment for rifle to rest leveling.
