1. What
is the advantage of a coaxial rest
compared to other conventional rests?
The co-axial design
offers the
advantages of
rapid movement in any
direction, with less hand movement, no
lag of movement, or loss of
concentration and time while
compensating for wind changes. |
|
|
2. How does the SEB rest compare to
other coaxial front rests?
The SEB
rest offers
the
most
FINEST coaxial
front rest
in the market, at a fair price.
Please
feel free to compare the SEB rest to any
other coaxial front rests in the market
&
feel free to ask the shooters that have
already used the SEB rests,
and judge for yourself!

3.
Why do you use "dual
post" and
"pivotal base"
design on
the SEB
rest?
The
"dual post”
design undoubtedly allows the
rest to have a stronger
& sturdier
construction compared
to one single
post, although it
doesn't offer the widest range of
vertical
adjustment.
The
"pivotal base”
design allows the shooter to
choose his/her own liking on the
rest configuration, and how he/she might want
to move the joystick.
(i.e. in the same direction with the
rest top, or in the opposite direction). This
is a NEW concept
& THE ONLY ONE in the market!
The SEB rest design also allows either right handed or left handed
shooter to use the
SEB rest the same.
No modification etc is needed.
The
mariner wheel under the coaxial unit (for coarse elevation)
provides a smooth vertical adjustment,
with no lash/creep in its movement. |
|
|
4.
Is SEB rest rock solid and stable?
Yes, absolutely. |
|
|
5.
How much is the M.O.A.?
Is it enough for my shooting?
The SEB rest has approximately
38 M.O.A. both for elevation
and windage. The
amount of the M.O.A. is based on common distance
(center to center of about 27") between
the front bag and the rear bag.
The SEB rests have been used in many
major Centerfire & Rimfire tournaments, including in long range
events &
F-Class shooting.

6. How low is the SEB
rest at the
lowest setting?
The standard
SEB
rest is approximately
4 1/2" at the
lowest setting, counts
from the bottom of the base
(or from the bench top)
to the base plate
of the rest top where the bottom of the
bag sits on. It is about 5 1/2"
tall including the SEB front bag.
(The SEB front bag is
about 1" thick between the
ears).
The
SEB rest is
about 8” tall
or more
at the highest setting,
including the front bag.
Foot pads for F-Class shooting is available on request.

7. Would the SEB
rest last for a
lifetime?
The SEB rest should last a lifetime
under normal condition.
The SEB
rest also utilized a
teflon sheet
(which is secured to
a metal plate) to push the sliding
plates inside of the
coaxial unit. This
detail
will last for years
& gives more
consistent friction/tension.
THE MOST
IMPORTANT THING TO DO IS,
DO NOT HARM
OR KNOCKS THE CENTER PIN/ROD(*)
because it could cause some "slop/lag" to the
bearings inside of the coaxial unit, or
this will be a lash/creep on the joystick
operation.
(*)The center
pin/rod is the rod which you attach the
joystick into it.

8. I have never used a coaxial
front rest before, can
I use this rest with
no problem?
In fact, a coaxial
front rest is
easy & user friendly to use!
With the SEB
rest, you can operate the joystick & the
rest top in the same direction, or in
the opposite direction, simply by
turning the coaxial unit from the
dual posts and attaching the joystick to
the center rod in the opposite side
of the coaxial unit, and interchange the
front & the rear bar of the rest top. It only needs about one minute or so to
change the configuration. I strongly
recommend you to TRY BOTH METHODS & find which one works better
for you! |

9.
How
do the SEB bags compare with other bags?
The
SEB front bag fits to
the SEB rest perfectly, just as good and
solid as you could want for a front
bag! The SEB
front bags also feature "micro" fiber
cloth between the ears which is smoother than leather or cordura.
The SEB rear bag features double
wall construction and integral
"doughnut" rubber base
(hollow inside). The bottom
surface is corrugated, which
grips better on bench top
surface, no
rocking etc.
The SEB rear bags also have extra large
sand fill hole/spout, to
ease charging sand into the bag.
An innovative carrying
strap is added on the
rear of the SEB
regular rear bag, to ease
handling.
I
recommend you to use heavy sand for the SEB rear bag.
(Please read Mike Ratigan's book
"Extreme Rifle Acuracy", about this
matter).

10.
How the SEB front bags
secured into the rest top?
The
SEB front bag has two side flaps
along the length of the bag, which
will be/can be secured to the rest top, between the base
plate and the front & rear bar.
Interchanging bag is a matter of
seconds.
The
SEB front bags have filler spout on the
narrow sides of the bag, and FLAP
UP. The
bottom of the bag is also hard & FLAT.
The
design of the SEB rest top allows
shooter to use a rifle with wide stock,
or a Heavy Gun,
only with a little
modification. I once used the SEB rest
for a Heavy Gun (55lbs, 6"
wide stock) for
"500meters Fly Shoot" last
November 2006, in Australia. An
additional alum base plate & 6" front
bag were added & secured onto the standard
rest top, and removed the existing side
tension plates.
I finished 3rd and got the smallest
group trophy with that setup. I am just a novice shooter,
YOU should be able to do better
than me! |

11. How
can I fix the
SEB rest in
case I have any
problem later?
The simplest way
is to send
the rest (or the
parts) back
to me,
or to the Dealer.
I will send back the revised unit within
3 days maximum, after I received the
unit. (excluding the shipping
time to send back the revised unit to
you). I
wouldn't charge any
fee to repair my products. However, shipping
cost will be based on the case/problem. If
the problem exists because of the
customer's faulty (for instance because
of improper
use, or handling) you would need
to pay for the shipping cost.(& perhaps
the spare parts, if it really needs to be changed).
If the problem exists
because of the manufacturer's faulty
(just in case), I will pay for the
shipping cost (return shipping) --- Or I will ask the dealer
to change your rest with another rest in
case he
still has one in stock. Basically I
will try to find the best way to fix the
problem!
Please do not hesitate to
contact me in case you have a problem with your SEB rest!
12. How to adjust the sensitivity?
There
are 4 (four) tension screws located on the coaxial body, around the "rubber
boot".
(These screws are in Metric M6x1.0, 20mm long).
A metric allen wrench
& a ring spanner combination
included in your package.
The SEB
rest is factory set to accept MINIMUM
13 lbs of weight on the rest top.
To add more tension,
turn/tighten each tension screw
just
very little
(a bit by bit)
& clockwise.
Vice versa, to
reduce the tension, turn the tension
screws a very bit, counter clockwise. You would need to hold the counter
nut in position with the ring spanner,
while you turn the tension screw with
the allen wrench.
Personally,
after loosening the counter nuts, I
first usually turn the screws clockwise by bare hand, then
check how much vertical force the rest
top can accept. If it is
still to loose, I would add tension
a bit
on
each screw (with allen wrench in this
step), until I find a fine setting &
get a uniform feel/force to operate the
joystick. (For instance, if I feel the
left side a bit loose, I would add more
tension to the screws at the left side, etc.
If I feel the upper side a bit loose, I
would add tension to the screw at the upper
side, etc. Or by combination of those
above, to find the
best setting. I will make sure that the joystick can be operated
smoothly to any location/position.
Then I will tighten the counter
nuts at a light to moderate
tightness only. And check again how the
joystick works. I use to used a certain
weight (a 13 lbs steel block) on this
matter, but you can push the rest top
down (by feel), actually.
Please note, that most factory
bolts & nuts have some slob or lash in
its movement.
This is why you first need
to tighten the screws at a light to
moderate tightness only. (i.e. to be able to
adjust
the screws a bit without loosening the
counter nuts).
Once the
finest setting is found,
I re-tighten the counter nuts. (just to a
moderate tightness, because in fact, no need to tighten
the counter nuts very tight).
It usually takes
about two minutes (or so) to find a fine/the
best
setting. With a little "trial & error" you
would be able to adjust the tension of your SEB rest, to
your own liking. The key is to turn the
screws a very bit by very bit, and check
every time you make an adjustment.
It
is (just) normal that if you
set the tension too much, the joystick
would be heavier to operate. Vice versa, if
you set the tension too loose, the
mechanism/rest top would
be loose also.

13.
Do you still
offer custom paint
job on the rest base? Or the stainless
steel rest?
Many regrets!....Just like you,
I do also love Beauty
instead of just Function! However
I cannot find a good painter/artist that meet to my standard
of quality.
So
I no longer offer
custom paint job/ airbrushing on the SEB
rest anymore.
The same thing on the stainless steel
rest, I cannot find a right man to do
the job. Due to my time and so on, I
wouldn't be able to polish & make some
"artwork?" on the s/s base for myself.
It usually takes about 4 full days to
make, to polish, and make the artwork on
one s/s rest. I wish I have a lot more
time & stronger back!
Thank you
for your understanding! |

1. Can I shoot better or
would have better
results with SEB rest?
I would say I
don’t know! Just shoot
your target properly,
okay!?...
You might need "to talk” to
your bullets and ask them to please
exactly
go to
"the right place" every time.
Believe me, you will WIN
all matches
with this "valuable" input!
Seriously though, more and more shooters
got better results using the SEB rests. |
|
|
2. Why SEB
rest isn’t so expensive?
Because
I eat rice, lol.
|
|
|
3. Do or will I look good using SEB
rest? Well, it
depends…At least it will make you more
"customized”, especially if you get a new
hat!
Some folks say "If you can't shoot good,
at least you should look good"....I
think it's true! |
