I use bags and other rests too but theres nothing wrong with a supported front and rear with mechanical elevation adjustments. It's not like the rifles are locked into place.

I have yet to find a front rest I'm not constantly adjusting, fluffing up, squeezing for height and generally comfortable behind. Will be going to something similar to what 260 uses in the near future so I maintain the front elevation consistency but get more natural positioning at the back end.

Plus it makes a half arse vice for cleaning and other tinkering and I got it used for a song.
