Rear bag advice

[hunter14806]

I am getting into 1000 yard competition, 6x47 Lapua w/ Mcmillan MBR stock, and I don't have a good rear bag. I like to get recommendations and advice. Thanks.

I've gone from this bag to that bag, and a few others thrown in and have finally settled on the Edgewood Mini Gator with medium high ears, narrow 3/16 inch flat between the ears, filled with Sinclair sand.
Works well with my MBR and most other stocks that I have.
www.edgebag.com has them in stock for $129.50 right now which is 5% off the regular price.

Whatever bag style you choose,the mini gator suggested by dreever is a good one), I would suggest cordura, rather than leather. I went to my first 1k match a few weeks ago, and learned what guys are using for their bag setup. You may know this already, but in case you don't... Cordura bags, usually packed very tight. Spray the bag with silicon, then wax your stock with any type of automotive wax. The gun seriously feels like it's riding on ball bearings when you do this. First time you try it, it feels like the gun is going to slide right off the rest if you don't hang on to it! Also, this is a lot cleaner of a method when compared to putting powder on a leather bag.
