Top 5 must have Bench rest shooting accessories 

If you are looking to go Bench rest shooting, there are several things you need to be prepared. Below is our list of the top five bench rest accessories.
  1. Custom Bench Rest Rifle: Your standard off the shelf rifle just won't cut it in this extreme sport. If you have loads of money to invest in your bench rest equipment, visit a custom rifle builder like D & B Supply. Other wise you might want to shop the Bench Rest Central Forums for used rifles.
  2. Long Range Rifle Scope: You will need a powerful rifle scope such as the Nightforce rifle scopes. You can also find good rifle scopes on Ebay.
  3. Ammo Box: Most bench rest shooters load their own ammo before heading to the next bench rest match. You will want a good ammo box to keep your brass in. This also provides an easy way to get your shells between rounds
  4. Shooting Rest: One of my favorite shooting rests is the Caldwell Sled Rest. Thes rest provide a perfect set up for bench rest shooting.
  5. Bench Rest Rifle Ammo: Unless you are loading your own ammo, you will need to visit an ammo supplier to get you shooting at the range. Make sure you buy Benchrest quality ammo. Long Range only.

Tips to better Benchrest Shooting 

Here are some basics to practice when you are benchrest shooting.
  1. Adjust your scope for proper distance: Most shooters range in on smaller ranges. Be sure you adjust before your first practce shot at the long range.
  2. Know your benchrest shooting equipment: Make sure you have the right rifle, scope and ammunition to shoot on the appropriate range.
  3. Always - always follow the benchrest shooting range rules: Safety when shooting must always come first. Never load a rifle unless you are prepared to shoot and pointed down range.
  4. Avoid getting your cheek and eye to close to the scope: These guns pack a powerful punch and some will kick more than others based on the ammunition loads. Avoid getting a black eye or stitches from a scope kickback.
  5. Be respectful of other Benchrest shooters: Shoot your alotted time frame and gather your equipment so the next shooter can get prepared on the bench.
