I want to use a good precision front rest but I shoot an FX impact with a protruding air cylinder. I have a picatinny rail under the bottle. Does anyone know of anything that can adapt to my rail and act as a channel to secure my rifle so I can use a good front rest? Tks.
What can I adapt to an FX bottle to secure to front rest

If you have an extended picatinny rail, you can try this-

Don’t quite understand what you’re trying to do? Is your rail extended or the little one that comes on the gun? What do you want to attach to your pic rail, a bipod, tripod or something else? If you want to mount something farther forward, you can either get a picatinny to picatinny extension on Amazon, a Kraford and Lypt rail, a Saber Tactical rail, a Saber Tactical picatinny bottle mount or use a front bag. Or the thing in the picture above.
Below is a Kraford Lypt picatinny/Arca Swiss rail with a bipod in one pic, tripod in the other.

I assume, yeah yeah I know, that he is wanting to use a front rest along the lines of a Bald Eagle or the like, from his use of the phrase " precision front rest"
I have not seen any easier way to attach a 3" bag plate to an Impact that has an extended pic rail, than the linked device.

I am in the process of making one i bought a quick release picatinny rail adapter for $9 and i am gonna bolt it to a 3" x 3" piece of 1/8" flat alum so that it will rest on my front shooting rest.

I use hawke clamps on mine, and harris bipods. Just make sure to check the clamp for burs on the welds before use.

Tks for getting back. Your tripod setup is similar to mine but I substituted a 3 way adjustment for the ball. I was looking to try using a precision front end rest but wasn't sure what to use to secure to the front rest. I found what I was looking for a targetshooting.co.
