I'm curious what bags you guys are using for F-T/R or even F-Open. I'd like to find one that has some height to it, but I'm not having much luck. Also, does anyone shoot with a McMillan A4 or A5? How do you handle the thumb hook? Best to put the ear in the thumb hook area, or behind it?

Re: I need a new rear bag
The Edgewood Mini gator with handle and 3/4 inch stitch filled with Chromite works for me.

Re: I need a new rear bag
Thanks for posting this question. I am in the market for a rear bag also for a Savage 12 F/TR.
I will be watching this thread with interest.

Edgewood mini-gator as well. I use the extra short bag and then use mouse pads to fine-tune my elevation.

Re: I need a new rear bag
I have been using the Red Tac Gear bags for F-T/R. I have one each of the 1/2 Pint, Rear Bag, and Tactical Pillow. My choice in a match depends largely on the range and whether the angle to the target is up/down/level. I probably use the Rear Bag most often.

Re: I need a new rear bag
I bought a Protektor #14, then realised as gstaylorg mentioned above that the Red Tac bags that I had already offered me a lot of versatality since they were different sizes. Also I have seen some creative rear bags that folks have made themselves .

Re: I need a new rear bag
I use the dr. protektor with handle in picture, and because i am a cheap bastard and cannot see for the life of me why somebody would pay money for heavy dirt, i filled mine with salt. it works good, flows easy, and after the zombies get smoked i will have some salt for food....took almost 4 #'s to fill it,bag and ears. i shoot a savage f t/r in .308.not dissapointed

Try these guys. 60% less than the Edgewood, better in my book. Ears are nicer. I have both, won't spend the money for an Edgewood again.

Re: I need a new rear bag
Anyone shooting a Savage 12 F/TR mind sharing the flat width you use on your rear bag between the ears?
Thanks

This is the one I have used for a couple of years now. I like it very well.
I use it with my Remmy 700 in .223 and my Savage FTR in .308.

Re: I need a new rear bag
the shorter of the two might be a little better you can allways use a shim or two under it for a hight adjustment. i just picked up one and used it wensday it worked out nice with a shim or two with my MCM A5
