[QUOTE="Bruce Treloar, post: 2465006, member: 104002"] I have tried just about all rests for field (Hunting) and have found them heavy, cumbersome , snag on branches or rocks and be too slow to set up. I buy a canvas bag similar to the WW11 gas mask bag and fit a block of NON CROSS LINKED PE into it. This plastic has very poor resilience and is quite dead to feel. I cut it to form a set of stairs so the forend can be raised or lowered with the heel of the stock on the ground. Setting up is so fast and it suits all forend widths though I mainly use 2 1/4" or 3" forends. There is usually 20 loaded rounds in the bag together with an 8 1/2" long skinning knife rolled up in a oiled rag. My shooting routine is alternate week ends one day shooting benchrest and the other field hunting. I use basically one hole rifles in the field and never go hunting without the bag. [/QUOTE]
