I have an Eagle Rhodesian rig, has armor pocket on front, rear a pack. Tried a buddies 10x12 plates, they were thick, fit in bottom, but too wide at top, the bib part is thinner about 6” at top. Does anyone run a setup as such and knows plate size/cut? Was looking at swimmer cut plates, but cannot find measurements at the top after the step down from angle. Can anyone help, or steer in right direction, not wanting to buy and have not fit, trying to avoid any PITA lol. Thanks

Plate dimensions and thickness will vary from manufactures. You’re best bet is to call or email them with your inner dimension and see what they have.

Honestly, unless you’re just dead set on using this Rhody carrier, you really should probably size the plates you your torso and then buy the appropriate carrier. That said, IMO a shooter cut level 3+ or IV is a decent compromise for most normal sized people.
