Default when the rest matters

Been thinking, when I started shooting my new englander, I was using an homemade shooting rest made with stuff around the house. I was hitting the target everytime. then I switched to and mtm site and clean rest and that is where it all went to hell.

I also have some stoney point bags too I started with. I do very little 100yrd shooting because of where I hunt I may have as much as 75yrds. but the little I have done. the mtm with my knight all over the place, same bullet with the homemade rest 4in group, same bullet with bags 2 to 4in group.

switch to the mtm to save my back.

so my plan after I get my new englander fixed. is to take all 3 rest and do 5 shot groups off of each of them. and test my theory.

Thoughts?
