I've used some different kinds of rests, and I've used sandbags.
With some rests that aren't well padded, the rifle kind of 'jumps' off the rest, and I believe will not give as good accuracy as sandbags. The sandbags are 'dead' - the rifle doesn't bounce as much.
So, I guess I'd say sandbags.
The exception would be a real benchrest type front rest with sandbag- that's the best of both worlds, IME.
