Help needed sorting a rear bag.

I have recently bought an Anschutz 9015 HP (BR50) PCP air rifle. It's for my indoor 25 yard benchrest shooting (replaces my CZ457 .22)
The stock is the Anschutz BR50 model, and it's a chunky bit of walnut.
My old rear bag (Protektor DR Flat Top) has 3/8" between the ears but that's too tight for the 9015 stock.
I'll add a profile pic of the new stock.
Question is...do I go for a bag with taller ears (such as the SEB) which has tall ears, and 3/4" or 1" gap...

or a bag with much lower ear height (Protektor 'Bunny ears')?
Measurements of the stock...it's 135mm (5.3") total height, fairly much slab sided 46mm wide (1.8"), then bends straight inwards for the bottom 25mm (1"), with a 15mm (slightly over 1/2") wide rounded bottom.
I'm guessing I need ear spacing of 15mm minimum just to fit the bottom of the stock in between the ears of the rear bag.
Then ears to support the angled lower portion only? Which would mean the 'Bunny ears' from Protektor. Or taller ears to curve round and help support the sides too.
I don't do free recoil as neck damage means I have to rest my head on the stock.
Very limited supply and choice here in New Zealand. Protektor out of USA is dear for postage ($US104) with bag cost on top of that!
SEB I can get locally or buy in from Australia.
Main advice needed is ear spacing, ear height.
Thanks for your thoughts/advice.
