Competitions
I am warming to sitting, certainly allows all abilities to take part.
I have a "fat bag" which is a great benchrest bag. A one handed pistol rests perfectly in the V of this, but I think one handed rested is all that needs to be said.
Shooters can then adopt whatever they feel is best.
I'll post some pictures of how I would shoot, for ideas.
Kind regards,
Phil

The more I think about this bench rest thing the more I am intrigued
Just been reading this - it relates mainly to cartridge pistols but some of it may be useful

I'm sure Mrs pmh would not appreciate the name calling (shame on you) :shock:pmh:354 wrote:I hold the pistol as normal, then rest my hand, so its a bit of both, depending upon which rest is chosen.
Do a net search for Fat Bag and you'll see mine.

I will however do some net searches for benchrest equipment.

Well found there Ian.
Odd name indeed. :D
Thats the chap. I filled my with bean bag fill, and it's perfect.
Trouble is, out of a 3ft bag of the stuff, I still have most of it left, so if anybody needs any fill, I have plenty left.
Well, I finished the trial target, just needs a few lines for date, etc, but here it is if anybody fancies a go, the target is >>Here<<.
1 shot at each roundel, 10 shots in total.
Highest score is 10, but you score a bonus 0.5 if you completely obliterate the very small centre circle, which then makes the total possible for each roundel 10.5
I would be grateful for feed back.

Comp Target
Good luck all enjoy, the target seems fairly large for benchrest, still should help if your using a gat, , M.

Managed to print some off today and have a quick go earlier
Seemed OK to me - not too large!
I have to admit to shooting .22 CO2 recoiless off the makeshift bench rest though (an assortment of cushions on top of the folding garden table!)
The joints in my right hand cant really cope with the recoil of a springer
It was one handed though and the pistol is nearly 50 years old!
