Sinclair Comp Rest Windage Preloader

SIGH>>>>> I shot 1K competitively for 6 years and did very well. The first year was a learning experience looking over everyones equipment and seeing what worked. $$$$$$$.

After a few year hiatus I feel like I need to go to some matches just to watch and see what everyone is shooting on and with!! Things are changing rapidly.

My BAT's are out of style.
My Dasher is going out of style.
My ST1000 is out of style.
My 1010 scale is out of style.
My old rockchucker is old.
My front Hart rest is out of vogue.
My rear bag is out of style.
My RL15 is out of vogue.
My berger bullets are out of date.
My Jewell is out of date.

At least i still have my 450's....for now!!

I think your list is fine, but check your scopes. That seems to be one of the most important developments over the last few years in LR Benchrest.
 
Yes a lot of guys have rigged up springs to keep the tension. These are a good idea. I remember talking with one of our shooters that used to shoot deep creek about his rest moving when firing. He had high speed camera for explosives work. His rest had strong springs...
 
Yes! Material is here, work order is in the shop.

Based on field testing, I made the following tweaks to the production units vs. what is pictured:
  • Switched to a nylon acorn nut to protect the aluminum Sinclair post carrier
  • Changed the mounting to one tapped thru hole and one hole that's counterbored on both sides to accept a lock nut and washer. Of the 6-ish folks that have tried it, one had a hole pattern about .02" different in his Sinclair base. The new design is more forgiving on the hole locations.
  • Changed a counterbore depth to give it a little more travel. It is now capable of +/- .33" from center (based on my rest)
  • Pricing will be $75 for one delivered within the US or $130 for a pair delivered. At least one tester wants them on both sides.
It should be 2-3 weeks before the listing is live.

Thanks!

Travis
