I have been using a Caldwell Fire Control Front rest for about 6 months now and for the cash its a pretty good unit ,, it aint no SEB or Farley but it aint 1000s either ,
ther is just a few thing i really dislike about it and want to change this thread will be used to show you guys and girls what i dont to it
things i want to change
The Tension Screws
The front bag
the Length of the rear leveling foot (its to long)
So First up is what i attacked tonight
The tension Screws !!
As this Rest is a Joystick Rest it has 4 tension screws on the front that require a Alan key to adjust , being a cheap rest constant adjusting is required for smooth operation with different guns of different weights , they can also vibrate lose in hte car ,, and if you forget the alan key well your gunna hate your day at the range
here is how it is adjusted stock
So i decided to use my mini lathe to turn up some Brass screws i could Adjust with my Fingers
