You need to get rid of the box brownie and get a view camera to take care of skewed perspectives!

Could have corrected in Pshop, but did not think it was worth the bother.
It is a problem with little digicams - but it is not a photo competition! ;)

Had to pop out and zero the 243 using the Barnes TTSX  bullets. Gave the new bench a test run and can honestly say I'm well pleased, it is nice and stable!

The 80gn TTSX (~3350 fps) groups well hopefully will take some roe or fallow in a few weeks up where men wear skirts...

Joe, is that bench all your making or did you get a folding frame and put a factory top on it?
Or is the top mahogany with a lot of finish work?
Looks very interesting, more details , please.

The top is made from scrap pallet softwood finished with a mahogany woodstain.

The base is a Triton 'superjaws' saw horse.

Nice finished product J.B.
 
Good enough for commercial sales, I'd buy one if postage wasn't such an issue.

Managed to get paws on the earlier model of 'Superjaws', this has the spreader bars on the base of the legs.

That has come up really well.

Over here old fence posts are saught after for much the same work. Hardwood, after being run through a thicknesser comes up with some fantastic colour and grain.
