Rear Bag Fit?

Should the butt stock ride right on top of the stitches of the main bag or be a little up on the ears? My stock is has a 5/8" flat bottom. Thanks for any input.
 
Mine rides on the stitches just barely...Its a trial and error thing.
All rifles behave a little differently. You want it to recoil smooth and repeatable..
I find Protector Bags work well for my 284 Shehane in a Kestros stock.
Bumble bee flat top DR model.

If I could trouble you just a little more—how wide between your ears and are they slick,cordura, or leather? Thanks much for your help

My Protector bag is 1/2 between the ears and flat bottom stock is 1/2
I use the slick ear material but im not sure other stuff may work as well or better.
Can't try them all and what I have works for my application.
