http://wiebad.com/zen/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=10&products_id=102eibad. Texas shooters, made in College Station, awesome products. I have four different bags and use this one for a forearm bag on barricades as well as a rear bag. They have some bags that are dedicated for rear bag use, but this one is more versitile.

I just use the cheap Caldwell combo pack from Academy.
Could also look into a rear mono-pod.

Nope, the tacticool style bags are much better than Caldwell crap or a monopod. Night and day better

I dont know and calling him that I'm not going to ask.
Look at all the ones Weibad has. Or get a 12 pack and come by the house and try out all of mine.

I use a sand sock. Pretty much free and works great. It's a sock. Filled with sand.

Being local to College Station, I would love to buy from Wiebad. However, I find the Triad tactical tapered rear bag much more appealing. It is really nice to be able to adjust your rear elevation by just sliding the bag back and forth. I shot with one of the Triad bags and bought one the next day. It has held up great and the price is hard to beat!

I bet triad is good too. I've got a couple of their stock packs and I'm sure the bags are just as good.

I'm kinda like Slow Drifter. What is important or unique about a bag of sand? Please educate me.

I'm kinda like Slow Drifter. What is important or unique about a bag of sand? Please educate me. Buying a rear bag means the material it is made of is extremely durable. Some of us torture those rear bags, barricade bags, and support bags. They will hold up to anything you throw at them. The fill is much lighter than sand, it does not leak out, and it is unaffected by moisture. I don't own a Triad wedge but they are good bags as well. Same as the dog bone bag. Chad told me at my range that is his favorite one.

Yes I need to order a stock pack as we'll. Every rifle I own has one on it. Be sure and get one with bullet loops on the outside. Very handy for extra cases and a good place to put empty cases. I hate losing brass I've put so much work into making it perfect for that rifle.

I'm glad this topic came up. My old bunny eared bag is pretty much whipped, and I was wondering what to replace it with.

I like a rear bag that's not too big, round, with a little bit of jiggle.
