Most pards just make their own.  I have made five different sets depending on the range and distance.

 

However, there is only one annual match that I have attended that allowed the use of a rest.  I let the folks use mine.

I used to make 'em... price depended on wood selected.  Mesquite was quite expensive, but pretty.  My favorite are mine with cherry wood & engine turned stainless stakes.  Kinda sad when yer crossed sticks are prettier'n yer rifle!

You might want to check out a "Wrist Rest". Dave has one but is different from the ones we used in the past.  Fred Leeth and his son Freddy ran a machine shop somewhere in Ohio, I think. They made small components for black powder shooting including wrist rests and cartridge deprimers. Both were excellent but the deprimers would only do 38 and 45 calibers with a maximum case length 2.10". I was shooting a 45-90 Browning Creedmoor and asked them to make a tool that would déprime the 2.4" case. They declined and I wound up making it myself adjusting it for a maximum case length3-1/4". Since that time, I have sold over 200 of them all over the world and have given away almost that many.

They also sold an excellent lube called "Pioneer Lube". It held up to heat and cold better than the popular lube at that time: SPG.
