Better than a $30 cheapo unit, but not suitable for competetion - Caldwell Rock BR Competition Front Shooting Rest 440907

The name BR Competition implies the rest is suitable for benchrest competition. While it's slightly better than $30 unit's, it definitely isn't suitable for any type of competition, especially benchrest. Everything wobbles because of horrible Chinese manufacturing tolerances. The main shaft wobbles, the secondary shaft wobbles, the top wobbles and even the foot screws wobble. Tearing down and resembling made the rest slightly better but it quickly goes back to it's original condition. Showed it to the plants lead mechanical engineer who wants to repair everything instead of replace. He said to get rid of it and replace with something better. (Then he proceeded to explain everything required to correct the poor tolerances which would be more expensive than buying a premium component.) I have a Ransom International front rest being delivered next week made from a small family owned business in Arizona from 100% American made components.
Note because of greatly varying quality in Chinese made products, mine could be the worst ever made and yours better. Granted my expectations in accuracy are very high (I expect to shoot less than 1/2 moa with my CZ 457 Varmint 22lr) and this unit is the leading cause of inaccuracy.
