I saw Marcus post on another topic here a few minutes ago .... if he's still lurking .... whaddaya think?

OK, I will.

The MEC Rest rests on the upper chest. My understanding is that the rifle may touch the right side of the chest (not the left side for a right handed shooter). So the MEC Rest is legal. It was made to provide the same kind of contact a wooden stock would have that a skeleton metal stock does not.

Hah ... thought I'd get him in here!
I defer to Marcus .... he is VERY knowledgeable on the MEC gear.

If it sits on the upper chest I agree.
