I also do not play the sympathy thing as some have done and then left more than just one time. When someone has been proven to be wrong and then waiting for someone to beg them to come back. When I am wrong I freely admit it and then I apologize to the group and the individual for making that mistake. I have nothing to prove and if someone does not think it is right it is then on them to prove I that am wrong and not just the opposite. Why would I when its all based on my own personal experiences and my own research and personal knowledge gained. Once again you're simply trying to distract and play some word games. You'll never admit you're wrong, and can't prove this myth about how Rowland shot his record. I'm laughing at you saying you admit you're wrong and apologize to anyone. Too funny! Isn't everybody's experience their own? How does yours differ from others, except to be based on myths when it comes to history. So if the almighty John Louis says it's true, then he doesn't need to prove it? It's up to everyone who doubts what you say to prove you're wrong. Not your responsibility to back up your claims. Once again, hilarious. Oh, and you've played the sympathy card often. Whenever you attack anyone and they stand up for themselves you start acting like you're being bullied by them. Reminds me of the kids in grade school who hits another when the teacher isn't looking, and then acts all innocent. Or the little brother who pulls his sister's hair, and then plays innocent when she cries for mom.

	Wow I just now actually read your entire last reply and you seriously do need to seek some mental health counseling!

This from the guy who avoids answering questions, when asked to prove his statements. And instead begins rambling about apologies, rifling, and anything else to distract from proving what he says is fact. And you might want to look in the mirror and make that same statement. You post some really bizarre stuff around here.

	Some chatter in this thread about the Pope Machine Rest. Might help to show how they looked. Below is a copy of the old Pope machine or double rest made by Rodney Storie. They are available from Rodney as a set of castings. He also made up several sets finished and ready-to-go. For my shooting, I use a Skip Epp front barrel rest (sled). The front rest that comes with the casting set can be seen in the photo and is of brass (it doesn't expand enough to fit the rifle barrel shown. Even though the design is over 120 years old, I find it's a handy device for load development and testing various lots of .22LR.

	Randy, Does the rear of the Pope rest clamp the rifle in any way, or simply cradle the barrel?

	Val your ego is so overly inflated that you don't even have enough self control to even ignore your own wish and that of wanting to ignore myself. You just have to prove that you are always right no matter how wrong you might actually be! Man up and drop it the folks here don't want to here any of this unrelated BS.

	Randy that is extremely nice and some of those here might have not known. What the Pope Machine Rest actually consisted of and this is an outstanding example of.

	Man up? Hey, fella, I still haven't seen any proof of anything from your end of this. Now, you are just assaulting the other forum members. I don't give a hoot if Rowland (the guy you call CW like you knew him) shot it over six months. I want to see your proof that's what happend. It seems odd to me that so much of it seems to have been recorded- load, rifle, weather, date that the long span is not likely, or even very probable. But if you can PROVE it, I'd be happy to see that. Now, shut up and start looking through all your 'stuff'. Maybe it'll be under the pile of Barry Darr secrets you have hidden away.

	I'm not trying to prove a thing- you, pal, are the one making questionable assertions and I (we?) want to see your proof that it is so. Real proof not just another JL says so line. I am not CW. Not by any stretch. I don't shoot that well, nor do I spend the next twenty three years telling everybody how good I am. In the one man's case- well, he's dead. In the other man's; he's due to shut up soon I hope.

	marlinguy The rear cradle is essentially a 'V' block that has elevation and windage adjustments. And, yes, a heavy recoiling rifle can jump off the rest when fired. In times past, it was common for a shooter to sit beside the rifle rest and hold a hand close to the butt stock to stop recoil. For me, I find it works best to sit behind the rifle and hold my shoulder close to the butt to stop recoil. Even though it's an old design, it still does a good job of testing the real accuracy potential of a rifle or load.
