BENCHREST ADAPTERS

BENCHREST ADAPTERS Reviews & Ratings

Our Sinclair forend adapter mounts securely to your Freeland-style and Anschutz accessory rail to provide a wide, stable surface for shooting from sand bags or from a target rest. The extra-wide, anodized aluminum base is ultra-steady on the rest with twin runners that track smoothly and help the rifle travel straight rearward under recoil. A simple, bolt-on way to give your rifle that rock-solid feel on the bench.

The Sinclair Picatinny Rail Adapter lets you use the Sinclair Benchrest Forend Rail Adapter on a rifle with a Picatinny rail on the underside of the forearm.

Took some machining to fit a none rail regular stock
It would be nice if they had a bit longer versions that was flat that could be simply drilled for forend studs and bipod setups.

Good Product .... But ...
What the instructions don't say is that it is a press fit with the Benchrest Adapter. Just tightening the screws will leave it canted and throw off your accuracy (a lot). I used a couple of small wood blocks and a vise to press mine together. That made a world of difference in how level my rifle is now. Would have given it 5 stars except for that.

Quality is let down by fixing screws
Forend plate is good quality, just found the Hex key holes in the rail fixing screws not good. I had one Hex key difficult to insert, I thought it was in okay but as soon as I applied a small pressure - bummer it slipped out, creating a burr on the hole. Became impossible to then get the hex key in again. Definitely the rail fixing screws are too soft...! My fix was to use a Dremel to clean up the burs, then cut a flat screw driver slot into the screw top as extra insurance. The next step is to purchase some new tough screw replacements. (PS - I did heed there advice not to lock up too tight - yet in reality this rail must be very firmly fixed to avoid movement during use from recoil. Hence my concern about screw quality.)
