Thread: Rear rest bag

Trying to find a good rear bag for target shooting without having to order from the US - I used one like this which seemed pretty good

Leather rabbit ear bag

Can't seem to find one locally - any suggestions?

(sorry for the link but I can't seem to insert images)

Jeremy at rivers n ranges in hastings usually has a few good ones in stock.

From memory his number is 06-8787177

It was interesting to see in his video that Norway uses something that looks like a hacky sack.

Thats so he can practise his hacky skills while waiting for his 3 hour stand down before having another crack at the 500

@Norway what brand was that rear bag you were using in the proficiency tests? Can you give us a looksie at it? Looked nice and small.

I bought one yesterday, will take a pic tonight.

Stumbled across these guys the other day on trademe, who seem to make a few different rear bags and other things.

The protektor bags are very good. I have the one shown in your link. Depending on your stock design if you are using it for F-Class you might want to go with an owl ear bag though.
I got mine from the states.

The little rear bags like Norway's one are great out in the field but would be not be practical for F-Class type shooting.

Yes its for F-Class and I think the rabbit ear type will work bet with the stock I have. I use a little stuff-sack for non-range stuff. If I can't find one locally I will order one from the US. Best I could find locally was one of these

Personally I would stay away from the Caldwell bags. The one I looked at bulged at the bottom making it want to rock around when in use. The protektor bags have a solid flat bottom that is much mote stable. Edgewood would be another good f-class rear bag
