Good bench rest for handgun...

nickcarr · September 21, 2000, 12:43 AM

I'd like to find a reliable bench rest for general handgun shooting. Any recommendations?

I've seen the block-like rest, but I'd like to have the "rest" do most (if not all) of the holding.

I have a feeling the ones that I see in the gun mags, are very expensive.

I'd like stay under $100 if possible.

Thanks

The best value you will find is MidwayUSA's Pistolero pistol rest. Not the best built, but it's cheap and it does the job.

Outer's pistol perch offers a steady hold and fine adjustment.I bought mine from Midway, but also use lead shot bags filled with sand as a rest and find the recoil more tolerable.
All the best,
