Abstract

A firearm rest for supporting a firearm on a support surface to facilitate a shooter in aiming the firearm at a target. The firearm rest includes a body comprising gripping material on different sides of the body. The rest can be used in different orientations such that the gripping material is in contact with both the firearm and the support surface, either the firearm or the support surface, or neither the firearm nor the support surface. The shooting rest includes a hub and protrusions extending from the body. Channels in various sides of the body facilitate use of the rest in different orientations.
