The Caldwell Matrix is a versatile shooting rest built around an ultra-rigid u-channel frame (Caldwell part no. 101600). The frame adjusts quickly in length to fit your firearm, and a spring-loaded tension mechanism with a height adjustment knob allows fast, one-handed elevation changes. Over-molded front and rear supports protect the finish while staying firm enough to prevent play. Remove the rear portion of the frame and the Matrix becomes a compact front rest, so it covers both bench and field use.
