Hi guys
Any ideas about coaxial bench rests?I had a look (in the internet) at the Seb ones but are they expensive or what?
I'm not sure about those Calwell ones.Any help would be appreciated.

I use a SEB rest. I don't believe them to be expensive when you look at the workmanship. Look after one and it will be a life time investment.
The other coax to consider is the Farley.
Once you get used to a coax you won't go back.

The general reports on the caldwell coax are that they're a bit sloppy.
The sebs and farleys are rated the best. For those with a regular caldwell rest you can get the shadetree top from BRT for a reasonable amount.
The missus has shot some good scores in the grade shoots 90.10 and 90.12 with a standard Caldwell BR but that has had it's windage fused to remove any slop in the mechanism and a lot of attention has gone into rear bag design for the fine adjustments to compensate for the lack of adjustment up front.
Quick fine adjustments are where the coax rests shine. Being able to quickly and precisely shift your point of aim without upsetting your bags is a big advantage for many.
But not everyone needs it.
