Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for benchrest use, so it is a specialized accessory rather than a general-purpose rifle tape kit.
- The tan PTFE-coated film is more visible on the rifle than the clear tape option.
- Each piece is cut to 5 inch x 5 inch, which may limit coverage to the areas intended for the forend and buttstock.
- Application instructions are included, but the tape still requires careful placement to get the intended fit and function.
