The Caldwell Precision Turret Shooting Rest is a heavy-duty bench rest designed for shooters who want maximum control, full range of movement and precise on-target adjustment.
Unlike traditional rests, the Precision Turret uses a swivel, pan and tilt system, allowing you to track targets and make adjustments without repositioning the entire rest. This makes it especially effective for dynamic shooting positions and maintaining sight picture between shots.
At the front, a non-marring forend clamp holds the rifle securely and centred, while still allowing controlled movement through the turret system. A micro-adjustable rear pistol grip support adds a second point of contact, improving overall stability and control.
The ball-bearing panning system provides smooth tracking with up to 58° of movement, while vertical adjustment at both the front leg and rear grip allows fine positioning for precise aiming.
