This feels like a long shot (bwahahaha - aren't I funny ) but......
I have a Bald Eagle front rest - shown below. During the process of researching compatible bags for this rest (I need to replace mine) I discovered that a number of folks are unhappy with the cable arrangement for windage adjustment. It is "grabby" and results in kind of a jumpy adjustment when it's used. So people have removed this cable and attached the adjustment knob directly to the threaded rod that goes into the carrier, so adjustments are made directly to the rod...resulting in much smoother operation.
By chance has anyone here gone through this modification? One of the first steps appears to be removing a set screw on the adjustment knob....and as of now I can't get it loosened. Some Kroil is soaking into it as we speak.
But in general, I'd be interested in hearing experiences (and any advice) from anyone who has done this.
Thx.
