I really don't like the idea of a rear rest for competition, to me it takes some of the shooter out of it and centers more on equipment. when you only have to dope the wind and squeeze the trigger, never shot a match but a front rest is all I would use. most of those folks payed more for the gun rest than I did for my rifle lol

A rear bag still allows for plenty of movement, it's the one piece solid rests that totally lock a rifle down and take the shooter out of the equation. I have a hard time squeezing my rear bag consistently still to keep still and on target. 
You should go shoot a match or buy some cards and shoot them in your yard. There's a little more to it than dope the wind and squeeze the trigger.
And how! 
I need to shoot my old Model 67 and see if it'll even chamber match ammo 
I hadn't thought of shooting out of a sled. I could probably still do that.
Of course I suspect not many shooters are using a $100 sled??

Their version of a sled is more like a couple thousand LOLI hadn't thought of shooting out of a sled. I could probably still do that.

And come in closer to last place.
I know, easy right?
If our matches allowed one piece rests I guess I'd have made one for myself by now. 
I have shot well over 50K rounds of 22 in my 63 years, a full rifle rest takes a lot of the human out of it imo.
Congratulations, I don't disagree but if you think it's dope and click you're wrong. You need to shoot some cards.
25 dots per card, in the league I'm in if conditions are decent you'll need 14-15 dots to win in factory class. Custom class you'll need 17-20 and in unlimited you'll need 20-25.
If you're shooting for fun or hunting practice then you don't need a rear rest . If you're shooting for score and you're interested in anything above last place you need a rear rest.

What's the most common rifle in factory class?
Not so fast. I won't be using a rear rest. So...there is a possibility they could be next to last.
Probably the cz mtr or the cz varmint. Very few Bergaras, they seem to have a lot of feeding issues.
The league in Ky has started having more tikkas show up. I'm a T1x guy myself. I shoot againt a few anschutz as well
Factory light has to weigh under 8lbs 4oz and anything above is factory heavy. If you change stocks or barrels you're in custom. Any barrel device, tuner, comp or suppressor you go unlimited.
