    I started out with a wooden 1 piece rest my dad made, then to a cheap two piece poly rest set, then to a Rock BR front rest and Protektor rear rest, then to a aluminum Protekor model front rest a Protektor rear rest, then thanks to a awesome CZicko brother I was fortunate enough to move to a Hybrid X front and a Protektor rear rest. They all get used with the Hybrid X as my favorite.
    If you want to stay budget oriented, the 2 piece poly set works great, my gkids do very well with the setup. I'll get you better info and a better pic later today but here it is.

    This looks to be more in line with my remaining budget!

    Have been exploring all the recommendations so far, and I'm only six numbers away from buying it all ... until then, I'll need to slow roll this bench rest adventure.

    Less than $100 to get started and you’ll likely use them for other rifles and or setups down the road.


    Like gmcttr - spend the money on ammo.

    I’d start with Cci sv for a baseline and then jump into testing premium brands should you decide to.

    Get an inexpensive set of bags to get started. I bought this set in 2016 and still frequently use the front bag. You can use a block of wood to raise either rest if needed.


    You will have more fun and advance your skills vs neither with out rests. :D

    How come you find the least expensive option for TJ yet you find an option to make my order from today more expensive than the quoted price?
