Allen Company Rangemaster Shooting Rest, Black

Very elegant and sturdy.

This is very poorly designed and not sturdy enough to use for the purpose it is intended for.

The build quality is what you would expect for the cheapest shooting Vice on Amazon. The worst part was the base would rock side to side because you cannot tighten the flimsy screws enough to keep it sturdy. I fixed this by welding the base together, and that completely solved the problems.

Works as it should

Good design, poor quality. Flimsy rivets hold parts together, and cheap knobbed bolts to tighten down on the supports and the swiveling main body are not able to tighten enough. The threading in the rest - which is just aluminum - is shallow and over tightening would strip the threads easily. I had my Ruger American in it to boresight the rifle and every time I touched the rifle it would move, even with the stock clamped in. Is a good compact size and very adjustable but poorly executed.

Poorly made. Not sturdy. Cheap material. Waste of money.

Although it is based on a interesting design i.e. the swivel arm; the China fabrication is junk.People that give this rest additional stars do not understand fabrication.Welds have holes in the beads, locking nuts misfit and mostly, the base tee design is so week that I would question it supporting anything beyond a pellet gun.Don’t waste your money unless you have a welder in you garage!Absolutely Junk!
