Curious on bench rest setups. Rolled Blanked, sand bags, mechanical rests etc.

I'm making a bench to shoot from and need some rest ideas.

Also, What are you using to fill rest bags? Lead shot, sand? Thanks in Advance

I use the shooters ridge bench and stoney Point Shooting Bag. It comes pre filled with I'm not sure what. Works great.

Fully adjustable. Plastic. Made in the USA. Lightweight, but doesn't wander, thanks to the rubber feet. Works with rifles and pistols.

When I use it with springer rifles, I just put a beanbag on the front rest to let it move a bit.

I like how the front rest is height adjustable with the just the wing nut.

MTM Shoulder Guard Rifle Rest - The Shoulder-Gard Rifle Rest (SGR) is MTM's first recoil reduction rest. With the growing popularity of magnum caliber rifles, heavy recoil can be a real pain. To address this issue, MTM has made a 4-point, flexible base, shooting rest designed to ease the shoulder punishment of sighting-in powerful magnum rifles.

I use a lead sled plus. I don't know what the front bag is filled with though. It can accept weights do dampen the recoil of my firearms. Also fully adjustable.

i have to prop something under the rear of it and use it backwards.. the rear has the adjustment peice for the height of the vise.. but using a pistol on it takes some creative thinking.. but it works
