XP100 rest out of a deer blind??

[Sniper338]

I got the itch with opening weekend coming to take the xp to the blind...

hs centergrip stock...

if i put the forearm on the window seal... what would be the best way to rig up a rest for my arms in back or it, or support under the gun...? any done it?

I dont like to take unsteady shots...

maybe a 2x4 across the blind... build a 1x1ft table to move around high enough to rest the gun on and a sandbag...?

not easy to hold an XP in a deer blind... bipod prone would be easy..

I've used the bag that Protector offers to fit on the window or window opening on your vehicle.

sandbag on your knee, grip on the sandbag.

If there is room in the blind build a shooting table it just has to be long enough for the bipod and the rear bag. I've got a piece of plywood screwed to the window sill and two 2x4s with 45's on each end for supports and screwed them in. Or you could do a small shelf below the window sill for your rear bag, coffee, binoculars etc

Check these out. I use one all the time unless I'm shooting from a rest.

I have an older Browning that looks very similar to this one. Works for about anything but a revolver hand cannon.

I put the forend on a brick bag then rest the back stock behind the grip on my forearm

thata work... I can easily put a big enough shelf under the window sill on the wall with 45s 2x4s to hold it steady, then just use the bipod and rear bag... I shoulda thought of that...

I put a straddle bag in the window, and use a camera tripod and put the grip on it with a brick bag between the grip and tripod.

Cpl Jorgy 3/4" pipe clamps.Cut the pipes to 16" or so,clamp on sill about a foot apart with the pipes extending into blind.Now weld up a sled....or make it out of plywood,that slips over the pipes.

Another trick that you might try is hanging a piece of rope from the top of the window (or an overhanging branch if you're in a tree stand) and wrapping your lead hand into the rope to provide a solid anchor point for muzzle end of your firearm.

Good luck this weekend.
