Was wondering if anyone could give any gun rest recommendations for springer air rifles; specifically a beeman R9.
Gun Rests for Springer Air Rifles
- Thread starter elock49
- Start date
open rest is a must, the gun must be allowed to pop up or move naturally with the spring / piston.

A hard rest will cause the rifle to bounce in an unpredictable manner. A sticky rest or something that's not slick will do the same thing. I personally really like a bean bag full of beans. They form themselves to the rifle. They are slick you make them out of something like an old pair of jeans. Sand doesn't work as a filling because it's too hard. I've heard people say that Rice works. I suppose there are any number of things like that including packing peanuts which might work.

Was lookind at amazon at stuff in general but on sale dont look bad at all (unfilled)
I figure a guy get poly pellets (weighted) as a more worry free fill unlike corn cob or sand. That can get rotting smelly or wayer logged if it gets wet..

I bought some super slick material and had my wife make a leather pot holder with the slick on one side , against the gun.
