Caldwell The Rock Front Shooting Rest with Adjustable Elevation, Recoil Reducing, Interchangeable Feet, for Range, Hunting, Shooting, and Outdoors

I received this item in the late afternoon and was using it 30 minutes later. The Rock went together very easy with no issues. It made a good cradle for the 700 but a bit too small for the Glenfield. The Rock came with a rear bag which was okay for the 700, but was not high enough for the 60. So, I placed an old shot bag under it to raise the stock up. This was an easy fix and I will just deal with it. (Hard to make something to fit all) I purchased this for the 60, simple to use, fast adjustments, and very smooth (a little gun oil goes a long ways!) I had read a post about the main screw cam getting stuck, burrs or something. Not the issue here, very well machined. Overall, the material, bags, are well made, look nice and very stable. There's nothing wrong with where this item was made, China, but then again, a great person once said, "it's a nice tie and it looks great" Ty

This rest works great! Was very easy to put together. Pretty smooth to adjust, but I think I will add a little grease or lube to the main ram for slightly smoother turning. It catches a little when going down if there is no weight on the cradle, but you just have to push it down and it works. If you have a rifle on the cradle, the weight of that makes it work perfectly. The elevation wheel is nice and big, and easy to turn and make very slight adjustments. I am using it with an AR-15, and the rear bag I think is gonna be a little low. No problem though to stick something underneath it to bring it up some. When assembled, and tightened down (including the J-hook), this rest is very stable. Cant wait to take it to the range and get some shooting in with it. If it performs as well as I think it will, I will be very happy with it. I was debating between this and the Rock BR, and I really think that this one will do everything I want or need. So far so good!

I really like this shooting rest. Smooth adjustments and very solid. Can't beat it for the price. After reading other reviews, I did buy an Protektor Owl Ear Front Bag to replace the Caldwell bag that came with it.

I like the rest but was suspicious when I saw the box it was in. Appeared to have been opened before. All items were in the box so I put it together then noticed the paint was chipped on one of the legs. The ram screw that holds the elevation ram in place was very sloppy. The rest seemed to work ok and I like the way it works but it wasn't in what I'd call new condition. If it wasn't used then shame on their quality control dept. Ordered another one and will send this one back. I think I'm going to like it based on how it looks and feels but I think the one I got was either used or slipped by quality control. Update: The replacement is exactly what I expected this rest to be. Much better condition and works perfectly. This rest is way better than the Caldwell Rock Deluxe. Heavier, controls are much more ergonomic, and the horizontal control makes it so much easier to use. I've been using the Deluxe model for 8 years and this one blows it away. If you're trying to decide between these two Caldwell rests, save a little more money and buy this one. The difference in price is well worth it. Why 4 stars? Caldwell has designed a nice affordable rest that works but quality control is missing. This is not meant to be the most precise rest on the market, but they could make this much better if they just tightened up a few things. You will need to grease the contact points on the bearings and screw in rams to make this thing perform like it should. Check all of the screws etc. and read the directions on how to make a few adjustments that might be needed. They aren't set perfectly from the factory. Well, some are and some aren't. You will also need a much better bag. The one that comes filled is very mediocre and looks cheap. I use slick Protektor front and rear bags and they work perfectly with this rest. Bottom line. To get a much better rest, than this one, you'll need to spend a LOT more money. This one will give you very precise shooting adjustments and is very solid. You WILL have to mess with it to get everything like you like it but that's part of the fun. This is perfect for the average to very good shooter. If you are a very precise precision shooter and want to compete with the big boys, you'll need to spend the money. But for the bang for the buck, for 95% of the shooters out there, you probably can't beat this rest.

Used this right after receiving it to sight in a rifle. Good mount up front, easy to adjust. The rear bag is small and too short but that is workable. Overall it does the job just fine and is a good item for the price.

Great sturdy rest!

Great! Exactly as ordered.

A nice stable rest for when I want to rule out bipod skip. Works even holding my bulky match rifles

🤩👍

I can now use this on a smooth table surface with my bench rest so it limits slip and protects the table.

Very pleased with the quality and the price
