I like to shoot from bipod and rear bag. I was sick of so much squeezing. So i built this "angle" on to the Picitanny rail cover. wood, bond, paint, ect.. attached are a few pictures. turned out pretty good i think.

I saw the first two pics and wondered what in the world you had done to your stock. The next photo looks amazing. That's some top notch work, and I like the idea of a ramp back there to make height adjustments on the rear bag. Outstanding.

That came out really nice.


It is far more important to be able to hit the target than it is to haggle over who makes a weapon or who pulls a trigger.

I have the same issue with my PRS. I dislike monopods with a passion so I bought a Wiebad mini cube and problem was solved.

That's a great idea and I'm going to build something very similar to go on my PRS. What are the rough dimensions on the wood portion?

bass cat- i would need your rail cover. I still have bondo and supplies remaining. but PLEASE know that i am not a professional! this was strictly an attempt to build an aid.

Texan til i Die- I dont have any rough dimensions. i literally traced out with a pencil on a piece of 1x6 pine. the Bondo will help you shape to what you want.

as much as i enjoy a good beaver, this was the work of a dremel. it was out and handy. it is really just something to use to build up so you dont have to use as much bondo. but by all means, use a pretty cut, sand it, then cover in bondo. lol... the edges do look pretty bad though, i agree.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Hah....me too, only my first thought was a pocket knife, then I saw the dremel tool off to the right.

Finished product looks pretty good though.

The picatinny cover on mine slides forward about half its length whenever I use a rear bag...from the recoil (.458 SOCOM). Every shot has me sliding it back into place.

You can add a small bracket in the rear for that
