I have been using a Caldwell rear bag for years but it is not tall enough and I have to use a 2x4 under the bag to make it tall enough. I am 6 ft 4 and am looking for advise on better rear bag for rifle shooting.
Which application? I love the OG Gamechanger from Armageddon Gear for prone shooting, especially because it doubles as a front bag for lots of other field supports. But it’s not at all appropriate for benchrest competition or F-class. For bench use, Edgewood all the way.
I’ve always used a Protektor at the bench but I only own sporters and it’s always been less than ideal. I’ve considered (though lazy about) building a wedge that pins through the swivel stud to present a horizontal stock to the rear bag. Easier I suppose to spring for a monopod.
"Something from Protektor. Be sure to get a model with a hard bottom. The soft bottoms tend to roll." Also pay the extra few bucks and have what you order filled with heavy sand.
probably the best bag i made on my own, i bought a yard of neon greenish yellow spandex at a fabric store and used two layers of it to make a bag and filled it with play sand. (heavy)
it was fantastic to shoot off of, but was way too heavy to carry around everywhere and as the spandex stretched, it allowed dust from the sand to escape, so if you like, dropped it on the ground and picked it up, it would leave a little circle of dust.
My latest was an edgewood mini gator. These bags come in multiple heights and ear spacings so make sure you understand what will fit your rifle best. You can call them and they will help you with the process.
They'll also make one custom for you if you need that level of refinement
