Just joined today. ;D Fairly new to this benchrest shooting, just 4 years now. Have been shooting BR50 matches and recently my club has started a 100 metre rimfire benchrest match. Oh boy is wind fun at that distance, 50 yards can be very interesting as we all found out at our last BR50 match. One member (CUSTOMBULLPUP) here has been a lot help to me, much appreciated. I retired this past January so I thought I would get myself a retirement present.
I had a rifle custom built, Stiller 2500X RBLP action, Benchmark 3 groove barrel, Jewel trigger and a Shehane Tracker stock. I added a Harrel tuner and a Leupold Competition 45X scope. Just received the completed rifle the end of March. A few trials and tribulations and operator malfunctions (not checking everything is tight) but I'm hoping for a big improvement in my scores at our BR50 (Mission) match the end of this month. Here is a pic of the rifle, don't have a current one since finishing the stock, hand rubbed Tru oil/Tung oil.
