Impoved accuracy when shooting from vehicle.


Recommended Posts


Do most of my lamping from vehicle window and am probably going to purchase a shoot right rifle rest which attatches to the car door making a solid comfertable platform.

Are there any other simpler solutions to this issue.

 

Are you thinking drivers or passenger window? What vehicle is it for?

I use the v between the mirror and the doorpost. Works perfectly :gunsmilie:

 

 

Thanks for the excellent ideas.The Sako has a floating barrel so the wing mirrors no good.I really like the idea of the pipe foam on the window.The rest i was going to purchase would be fixed in one position which can sometimes limit a shot but the window can go up or down.

I think a trip to B&Q is in order.

I will let you know how i get on

Thanks again.

I attach three photos of my set up.

 

This started out as a rough idea of what I wanted and I found it that comfortable, it became the finished article.

 

This rest is for the passenger side, as if my mate is with me he will shoot and if I am on my own that is where I will shoot as it is more comfortable for a right hand shot.

 

I do have one for the driver's side but that is rarely used'

 

First piccy shows it on my bonnet

This one shows it in place from inside the truck

And this one shows it in place from the outside.

 

I have pulled my mirror forward to increase field of arc. This rest is that comfortable I have the confidence to take shots well out past 250 yds.

 

The cost of materials was less than £4
