I have shot handguns off a rest twice that I can recall. Once was helping a guy zero the scope on his 500 S&W revolver. The other time was shooting a Glock 17 pistol because I was interested to see how accurately I could shoot it from a rest. Best I could manage was a 2" five shot group at 25 yards.
I would shoot handguns from a rest more often if ammunition weren't so expensive, if I had more time at the range, and if I had a setup for shooting handguns from a rest that was convenient. As it is, I hate to waste range time/ammunition on something that doesn't really count as practice time or skill-building.
