Founded in 2019, Long Shot Precision LLC brings Dave Pobutkiewicz's groundbreaking designs to the forefront of long-range shooting. 

With over twenty years of expertise in fabrication and tool and die, Dave has been immersed in hunting and shooting since childhood. His passion and commitment drive him to achieve perfection in every sport and hobby he pursues.

Dave identified a significant gap in long-range shooting: the need for precision and stability often led to cumbersome bench rests and sleds that disconnected the shooter from the experience. Dissatisfied with the conventional solutions, Dave took a revolutionary approach by designing the patent-pending Adjustable Bag Rider, transforming how stability is achieved in shooting.

He integrated the precision of a machine rest directly into the rifle, beginning with the highly acclaimed Ruger Precision Rifle. Now, you can pair a standard bipod up front with unparalleled precision adjustment and stability at the rear. Welcome to the next generation of long-range shooting.

Don't worry if you shoot something different—other designs are on the way!

After acquiring one of the original Ruger Precision Rifles, Dave immediately set out to enhance its performance, aiming to tighten his group sizes and gain a competitive edge. He upgraded with a 26" barrel, a custom reamer, new bipods, a 30 MOA scope base, a new handguard, and new triggers. Despite these improvements, his groups didn’t shrink as expected. That’s when it hit him: he needed a rock-solid platform to eliminate inconsistencies caused by natural body movement. Dave realized that variations were stemming from the instability of using a rear sand sock, and his hand often grew fatigued from constantly maintaining pressure on the bag while waiting for the perfect shot.

Dave considered a heavy rear bag, but it wouldn’t provide the vertical adjustment he needed. An adjustable front rest was too heavy and costly. Frustrated by the lack of functional options, he decided to leverage his skills to create his own solution. In 2017, drawing on his tool and die experience, Dave began developing a groundbreaking design in his machine shop. This marked the inception of the Adjustable Bag Rider.

Dave aimed to design a lightweight vertical adjustment tool that could be easily installed using existing clamps and bolts on the Ruger Precision Rifle. His initial prototype, though lacking some features, demonstrated that the ABR was viable. The introduction of linear bearings in the second prototype perfected the design. After competing in two events, Dave achieved Master ranking, and he is now a High Master, having used only a bipod and an ABR in all four competitions.
