Caldwell Steady Rest NXT Adjustable Ambi

I was looking for an inexpensive shooting bench rest to sight in a new scope for my rifle. Considering how infrequently it would be used, I really didn't want to spend a lot of money. This rest fit the bill. It came unassembled, but assembly took about 5 minutes, with 5 screws and 4 thumb-tightened bolts (for the bridge connecting the front and rear rest). It functions as described, and I've used it with both pistols and rifles at this point. PROS: - Easily raise or lower the front rest (and lock at desired height) - Will not damage the finish of your firearm - Great price! CONS: - It's plastic, so it's light. Moves very easily, even with light-recoil weapons. - Rear rest is too low, in my opinion...although you could add a sandbag or padding - Rear rest also doesn't work well with some collapsible stocks - Bridge must be removed if using high-capacity magazines (i.e. AR-15 w/ 30-rnd mag) - With bridge removed, the stability of the front and rear rest is dramatically reduced - Have to fiddle with it to lay flat...tends to bow a bit in the middle. But my sight is now zeroed in, so it did it's job.
