Rabbit Ear Rear Bag

I would have liked it if it was taller. I use bipods on all but one of my rifles the rabbit ear bag is a little low for that type of shooting.

Smells like my old baseball mitt

Something about this type of leather brings back old memories. The construction is first rate, but no instructions come with it, so had to search the Internet for clues. There are three fill ports one for each ear and one for the bottom. The Internet says that the bottom should be filled as tightly as possible while the ears are personal taste. I spent a lot of time rotating it while filling with Brownells heavy bag sand (do this outside, kids!) to ensure that the sand filled every nook and cranny. After filling one all 3 compartments, I had to go back and fill the other two more than once. Havent been to the range with it yet.
