What is the point of shooting with this at the range? I can see using a mount if you are in a snipers nest or something so you have accurate fire, but why at the range? How is it fun to put your rifle in a vice and then just shoot a target in the same place over and over with zero effort or skill? Shooting tight groups is impressive from standing, prone, from a knee, hell even from a bench if its with a shitty gun and irons. What is the point of autistically needing to shoot accurately with no test of your own ability?
repeatable measures of precision are the benchmark with which to understand progress
You ever heard of sighting in your scope you absolute fricktard?
does it take 2 hours to do that?
yeah, sometimes it can.
Your zero can change if you set up on the rifle differently. If you zero with a sled, then go out and shoot prone, or kneeling, your zero will be different. So zeroing with sled is really dumb, actually.

Contact on the barrel and receiver from the stock, handguard, or torquing on the grip somewhere on the rifle.
It's the whole purpose of bedding an action in a stock.
Holy frick, it's not even worth explaining to you.
your body absorbs recoil differently from a sled

It's not because you're eliminating possible errors with your equipment.
Consistency is incredibly important and you can't compensate for a scope that can't hold zero by practicing with a sling.
It doesn't work that way.
Once equipment is verified and squared away, then you can work on shooting form. Not the other way around.
used it for people with only one arm.
Some people are into taking the rifles accuracy to it's limits and want to remove as much human error as possible. I've seen people shooting on huge sleds operating the trigger with a string. Personally its not my thing, but who am I to judge? They are having fun shooting.
I can't speak for anyone else but I use sleds for grouping seating depth reloads.
Typically it's just for testing the optic or ammunition.
I realized that lead sleds are basically the poor Black person version of actual bench rest rigs
It's called sighting in scope but I always rested my rifle against a 50 cal ammo can
cripples are able to shoot by pulling with a string
you would be surprised at the disabled shooting aide industry
As others have already said. It's a solid rig to have, especially if you have half a dozen or more rifles. Also good for shotguns to dial sabots in at 150 yards.
Get the right rig and you can adapt it for handguns & other small arms.
As useful and potentially much more, handloaders can not only dial in the sights, but can dial in different loads & bullets.
Once you have the gun dialed in, then it's up to the shooter to adjust their habits to take advantage of it. there's a thing called "accuracy" and another called "precision." And I can't believe there are homosexuals on /k/ right now that don't know the difference, yet they post anyway like any other Dunning-Kruger moron.
The idea is to remove your frickups from the system so you can know if your changes to the gun or ammo impacts the inherent accuracy of the assembly.
