ANOKA, Minn. - August 20, 2014 - Champion® Shooting Gear is proud to announce its Premium Shooting Rest has won a coveted Field & Stream 2014 Best of the Best Award in the accessories category. The Champion Premium Shooting Rest's strong industrial design offers a solid platform to keep firearms firmly on target. It allows for quick elevation and windage adjustment and accommodates a variety of rifle configurations. The steel weight tray tames the roughest recoil, while the adjustable length allows shooters to find the optimum balance for their firearm.

"We owe it to the game we pursue to place the shot where it does its work quickly and efficiently. To do that, you need a properly zeroed-in rifle, and the best way to achieve that is to use a rock-solid rest, one capable of quick and easy elevation and windage adjustments," said Slaton White, Deputy Editor of Field & Stream.

"This prestigious award speaks volumes about our product's quality and usefulness at the range or in the field," said Jason Slinkard, Champion Product Manager. "We designed these rests to have superior recoil management by lowering their center mass. The lowered shooting position also provides enhanced comfort. It's what sets our rests apart from the competition."

The Premium Rifle Rest is designed to accommodate firearms ranging from rimfires to magnum centerfires rifles. It is also ideal for MSR platforms because it utilizes a unique parallel tube design which allows shooters to use higher capacity magazines. Shooters can not only manipulate elevation and windage-but also level the rest on any surface with the three independently adjustable feet.

"This new rest has fine adjustment control to zero in on the target and allow consistent shot placement, and its weight tray helps tame aggressive recoil." Slinkard said. "The shooter can also adjust the overall length by as much as 3 inches to find the optimum balance for a specific firearm. Plus all our rests have an ambidextrous design so they can be used by both right- and left-hand shooters."
