A good front rest, rear sand bag. With a good front rest (adjustable) it's
a simple matter to line up for another round. Bags alone are fine too. I
prefer a good Caldwell front rest though.

Personally, I think you're better off using sandbags... or a machine rest
with sand bags. Guns vibrate when you shoot them and clamps, or resting them
against hard surfaces, can cause the guns to shoot differently than they do
when you hold them in your hands. This of course assumes that the gun is
accurate enough enough to make a difference. ;~)
