Interesting video of a small Tank Trap used for practice.

Full Sized Tank Trap practice
Pretty fluid from one element to the next

Rifle by the way is a Sauer STR200 / SSG3000 in Vision Chassis, calibre 6.5x55 used by one of the top Skandi shots - bags are Ulfhednar (available through Optics Warehouse)
Not a Creedmoor in sight
That is very quiet for a 6.5X55. Impressive.

I have just bought a Bifrost for my Tikka T3X. I find that the push button stock adjustments are very finicky, the buttons need a lot of pressure to operate which usually results in them popping through to the other side as they are ambidextrous. The cheek rest and butt pad adjustment increments are by means of fine toothed bars which should make small adjustments possible, but I find locking them at any particular setting is quite awkward due to the effort needed to operate the lock buttons. In a way it is not a major issue as the need to adjust the stock is not going to occur that frequently, however I am wondering if I have a duff example that needs to be returned. I have seen a few reviews and sought out opinion, there seems to be a consensus that the adjustments are fiddly. To those who use the Bifrost, how are you finding the adjustment system in use?

Thanks, so basically "selling after upgrade". I may consider this, my stalking rifle is a Sako 75 in 6.5 x 55 and a similar stock for my about to arrive T3 in.223 could be an option.

Why do you want to sell it?

30mm Medium rings and one blue base now sold.

I have found the NikWash and NikWax products to be easy to use and effective. https://www.nikwax.com/en-gb/productselector/productselector.php
I also use their waterproofing wax for boots, it does as advertised maintain suppleness and repel water.

RIP Mark. I never met him in person, I am a bit far from Bisley to be one of the crowd. I had contact with him off and on over the years buying a few items and in 2017 a new barrel for my Sako stalking rifle. As others have posted, he was very helpful with advice and straight as a die to deal with. My Sako is the work of a craftsman, a pleasure to shoot and will serve me as his memorial for a long time to come. Fly high Mark, may any God you held in your heart be with you.

So after checking county and club rules I can only use a single shot ( or only have one round in a magazine) for benchrest, but there is no weight limit, so a used Anshutz match 54 seems to fit the bill, i've seen them for less than £500 locally. Has anyone any thoughts?
Are you sure about the one round rule? there is no mention of this in the UK Association of Rimfire and Air Rifle Benchrest Shooting rules. In fact, if shooting Sporter Class, it MUST have a minimum 2 round magazine. http://www.ukbr22.org.uk/index.php/home/ukbr22-rules
I use my Sako Finnfire Sporter in sporter Class, and Finnfire Range in Heavy Varmint.
Tier one 30mm rings & floor plate.
