Aim With Precision Shoot with Confidence
A front rest specially designed for benchrest rimfire and air rifle shooting, the AR250 takes its name from Air Rifle, Rimfire, and the perfect score of 250 according to WRABF competitions. Balancing mobility, performance, and cost, this rest features a rigid, extendable central post for 360-degree swing and two elevation adjustment systems for rapid and smooth height changes.
It provides a stable shooting platform for precision shooting, ensuring accurate and repeatable results. The versatile design makes it suitable for various shooting disciplines and is crafted to meet the demands of competitive shooters. The AR250 joystick travel is designed to be able to cover most target paper from WRABF to NRA/ARA at various shooting distances (25-100yrd & 25-100m). Fitted with an adjustable counterweight system for smooth joystick action, the newly designed top plate secures the custom front bag firmly in place with minimal play. The AR250 comes in 3 options according to your choice of front bag size—2 1⁄4 inches, 3 inches, or both.

I love the rest. I'm 76 years old and really struggle with those heavy f-class rests. I had a JoyPod before this, and I really liked it, but after trying the AR250, I would never go back. The AR250 is solid without excessive weight and the action is ultra smooth with plenty of travel. The only problem I had was finding a way to securely hold a 1.5" chassis. After trying numerous hacks, I 3D printed a custom "bag" that works great. I couldn't be more pleased. The rest is perfect.
On Saturday I received the shipment and tested it on Sunday it works fantastic, the joystick is perfect. I am very happy with my AR250. It is the first one in the country (Argentina), and at my club everybody was looking at it.
The rest has arrived and I used for the first time again today and it is of course, simply brilliant
I just received the rest and rear rest I am happy to have such beautiful pieces, well manufactured. Thank you for the great job and service.
This is my first joystick rest and does take some adjustment on my part. The machine work is beautiful, and my only concern was it did feel unstable at times the extension kit should solve that. I'm shooting a 7 lb sporter and a 10 lb .22 rimfire benchrest.
I received my rest and I am blown away with it. The build quality is absolutely amazing as a machinist by trade, it's great to see craftsmanship like this! The smoothness is out of this world and it's super simple to setup. Keep up the good work!
My AR250 arrived today. I do have one small complaint though the quality of the rest looks so good that my wife didn't believe me when I told her it wasn't too expensive. I'm really looking forward to using it.
I have safely received the AR250 rest. The equipment arrived in excellent condition. The smoothness of the adjustments is impressive; I am truly delighted with my purchase.
Just Great would highly recommend ease of use to quality workmanship
Great Product
Fantastic front rest. Great customer service from Lionworks Engineering!!
I received the AR250 and it's really a great piece of equipment. I am definitely going to need the Adjustable Top Option and am looking forward to using it with the AR250.
I received the adjustable top upgrade for the AR250 and absolutely love it. It didn't come with the adjustable levers, but not a big deal I can still use an Allen wrench.
My original rest is doing great. My son and I do a lot of competitive shooting together he had been shooting from bipods, but took the time this fall to use my AR250 and proved he could improve his score by over 10%, making his shooting easier and more repeatable as well.
Great bit of equipment.
I'm very happy with it.
Love it. It is my second. Works like advertised
This is a excellent rest for air rifle or rimfire benchrest, light and easy to use and the quality of workmanship is first class
I received the AR250 today the unit looks GREAT! I hope to become a better shooter with it.
I received my new AR250 rest, exactly as ordered. I'm really impressed with the quality it's excellent. I can't wait to use it this weekend.
The rest is fantastic! I've been shooting some very high scores with it.
Today was my first opportunity to try out my rest. I gave it a fair try. I used everything I had in the past, only changing just the rest. The results were very positive. I am a very happy customer.
I got a chance to play with the rest today from one of my club members very awesome rest and excellent workmanship.
It's very well machined. I'm impressed by it.
I received my new adjustable AR-250 Top and I am quite pleased with it. I will be switching between the normal top and the new adjustable top based on what type of rifle I am shooting. I foresee myself using the new adjustable top for thinner, sporter rifle work, but my primary use for the AR-250 will be for true benchrest use with the original top.
The rest is working great and the craftsmanship is top notch!
I stumbled upon a fellow club member who has an AR-250. He allowed me to mess around with it and honestly it left me wanting that smoothness.
I love this rest. It is now solid and smooth perfectly dialed in. The quick attention to my question was very much appreciated.
Just received my rest. SUPER! Keep up the good work.
