Rifle rest

A rifle rest comprising:

• a base;
• a rifle support configured to support a forward portion of a rifle;
• the rifle support movably connected to the base and operable to move vertically and laterally with respect to the base to aim the rifle;
• an elevation mechanism operably connecting the rifle support to the base and having an adjustable height;
• a windage mechanism operable to adjust a lateral position of the rifle support with respect to the base;
• the windage mechanism including an arm having a forward end and an opposed rear end, the forward end operably connected to the rifle support to establish a lateral position of the rifle support based on a lateral position of the rear end of the arm, such that lateral movement of the rear end of the arm adjusts the windage of the rifle;
• and
• the elevation mechanism including an elevation control element connected proximate to the rear end of the arm, the elevation control element being operably connected to the elevation mechanism by an elongated drive extending along the arm.
