[QUOTE="Boss Hoss, post: 408711, member: 5060"] My experience has been 180 degrees different than JE's. Think of the rest "system" both frond and back as a foundation. I have one front rest with 2 different tops one for competition rifles and the other for a sporter now the rear bags I use several different ones all Edgewood. One of the most important things you can do is to level the rest and then the rifle before you start. This is my rest and if you would like more detail on how to set up the rests on a bench then shoot me a PM with a number to call because it will take me 30 minutes to type out the entire process but let me say this---when I am finished setting up getting the bags all settled and everything leveled I can slide my 1K rifles back a few inches and then slide them back forward and the crosshairs are still in the center of the bull at 1K. Anything less and you are not measuring the rifles true potential imho.
