I have an Anschutz .22 free rifle that I also like to shoot from the bench. But, all I have right now is a cheap plastic "Predator" POS rest. The rest moves a lot when I shoot, and the groups I get with it are terrible. I'm pretty sure its the rest, as I have better luck, albeit at closer distances, shooting off hand with all of my gear on.
So, I'd like to get something that will let me shoot better from the bench. I presume that a top dollar rifle rest will yield the best results, but just how much would I be giving up if I bought a quality shooting bag or bipod? The bench work is very informal, basically paper plinking, so I'd prefer to spend less if I can as long as I'm not giving up too much (I'd like to sink my money elsewhere in my collection).
