The rig Eley uses for testing. They're not too pricey, either. Not cheap, but not insane. USD $406.75

Obviously what shoots great in one rifle may not be the best in another BUT,
Maybe the reason many of us have not found the Tenex to shoot any better than the Black Box is because....... the Best of the Tenex may never make it to the US, it has already been picked over by this program.
Maybe because Eley doesn't offer this service for Black Box (Match) it is probably somewhat less picked over and there is potential for a diamond in the rough.
Don't know...but it is certainly food for thought.

If I said something that took either of you out of your comfort zone I did not intend to. It is not my place to argue back and forth with anyone on this or any other forum.

You didn't take me out of any zone comfy or not, I don't have an ammo issue, I'm trying to help yours. This is a free forum, that's perfectly fine but this is never gonna happen, also while you tried to contact Zanders...they're a wholesaler, don't do retail, don't talk to customers, that's pretty well known.
At the end of the day you can waste untold energy trying to change what can't be changed while overlooking what can, believe me I have.
It's food for thought until you realize how many, state, regional, national, championships are won with black box and lesser priced stuff. Another words, there is less demand for it here. I have not bought red box stuff in three years, nor has anybody I know... you do not need to.
I don't think you would be giving anything up by just using a Pappas Rest for $675.
(I know it takes the scope and everything other variable out of the equation)
