    Need some ideas with this rest

    Seat-Belt material on top that will be engaging your buttstock, should work fine and be fairly durable as well. We moved to a seatbelt type material on all of our rear bags and front bags, as it is slick enough, and was so much more durable than other materials that we have used in the past.

    Which cartridge do you like so much, you have multiple firearms for it?

    All is good. I knew you were having fun. The specialty pistols are not as magical or difficult as it seems they would be. If your fundamentals are sound, and you have consistent wind, shooting at distance is not a big issue.

    Which optic sights do you use on your pistols?

    This probably says it better than my earlier post. Work “backwards”. Aim your gun on the target. Get the correct picture. Pull it back to your chest. Push it back out. Is the dot where it’s supposed be? If yes, squeeze the trigger, as your “reward.” Do it again. Dot NOT on target? NO...

    Which optic sights do you use on your pistols?

    If it is for personal defense, you must be committed to practicing your presentation. Something to do on a very regular basis. You need to train your brain (Practice your draws), until you are automatically on the red dot, and you are not looking for it any more. There is a side benefit to this...

    Benchrest questions

    100/200 BR or 600/1000 BR? The word, "Budget" and the word, "Benchrest" do not belong in the same sentence 😇 I would look for a used benchrest rifle on Accurate Shooter forum or go to some BR matches, and you will likely find some there. It will be the closest thing to "Budget" you will find...

    Thank you. For reference below, here is some actual MV's on various 6.5-284's.
