The Front
Rest
The Front Rest (FR)-which
also goes by the name of the Fulghum Rest-was designed by Ken Fulghum, a
world class rim fire bench rest shooter.
The Rest has been used by winners in competitions across the nation
including IR 50-50, ARA Outdoor, and RBA Indoor.
Some of the Front Rests have been bought by casual shooters who just
want the best.
The FR was designed with
precision in mind. All parts,
other than bushings, are machined from aluminum or solid steel bar stock.
The windage/elevation assembly rides on two hardened and ground steel
rods with a tolerance of .0005 of an inch.
The risers of the elevation unit are also ground and honed to within
the same tolerance.
The windage is controlled by
turning a knurled knob on the side of the windage/elevation assembly.
The knob pushes a steel pin/ball bearing combination against positive
spring pressure to eliminate “chatter.”
Elevation of the rest is controlled by an offset knob.
This
knob utilizes a timing gear and belt drive to eliminate all but
the smallest amount of “backlash.”
Did we mention, the Front Rest is completely ambidextrous! The rest is available in a standard color for $750* (Price is for rest only, tops not included.), or many custom colors, for a small extra fee. Click HERE for sample colors and different views with the optional tops.
