BS.
Some people have fear or anger with lead sleds. It just a rest. If you don't use a rest for checking loads or sighting in scopes, you are just arrogant fool.
Today I was sighitng in 45-70. Only 50 yards, I realize difference would be multiplied at longer ange. But I did my final shot with sand bags, Touching. I realize at longer ranges it may different.
Only difference is length of pull. Same as jacket, or not. But I hear so many people say you shouldn't use them, that probably have not used one, and may use some other rest themselves or sand bags.
Myself, I am behind my rifle, looking forward, shouldering the rifle.
I bought mine to check loads, leaving my ego aside. Saying that, I was dissapointed, that it was not rocksold steady. You still have to do your part. Is just a rest.
Mine only hold 25lb, depite claim of 50. But I like that, still gives you recoil.
