You can buy some inexpensive rear bags off Midway.
Armageddon Gear Game Changer is a very popular PRS rear/barricade bag. They make a full size, medium ("schmedium") and small (pint sized). A pint sized Game Changer might be a good all around bag. Not sure on MOA Challenge requirements |

MOA requires a squeeze style bag, meaning you have to maintain pressure on the bag to keep the rifle steady. No V bags. There are a ton of companies who make bags but a lot of us use dried corn or airsoft BBs in a tube sock at MOA. No kidding.

Hmm...so maybe a real bag for range use and a squeezie sock bag for MOA use. |

I've always used the suede bags with sand. The Caldwell bags work fine too. If you're bench shooting for accuracy you really should have one.

I used a GI sock with popcorn for years, did the my first MoA challenge with it, it still rides around in the range bag.

Midway USA has an assortment of decent branded rear squeeze bags, as well as others brands. Crosstac, Cole Tac, Armageddon Gear, Wiebad and Triad Tactical offer some bags that meet the moa requirements.
If you want to shoot at MOA and do well, you would be well served to practice with the bag you’ll use. I love my Armageddon schmedium game changer, but it’s much easier to shoot with than MOA approved bags. I honestly feel that’s what hurts most ppl at the event. They practice using the “easy bags”, but then struggle when using bags that meet the requirement. |

This is my adult woobie. If I have a gun, I have this rear bag with me. Its not heavy / cheating enough for PRS and its too big for MOA. Everywhere else it reigns supreme...

They make light, med, heavy bags. Plus they are local, Buena Vista. N they have supported some matches. I suggest a rear squeeze. But I seen alot of stuff used in comps for rear support. But a squeeze seems to be most versatile. |

Anyone have experience with the Armageddon Gear "Squishy Bag"?
Looks like a good bag, should be MOA Challenge legal AND it's a GA based business so I'm not finding any negatives. Maybe a little pricy for a bag full of squishies but it is what it is on that front. |

Shot a mule deer last October in Wyoming off a boulder - could have been a PRS stage. |

I like the Armageddon Gear bags. Started with a Pint sized game changer, been trying Justin's full size game changer. Just got a Schmedium 1+1 for main PRS bag - I always carry the Pint Sized game changer too for those tricky tiny shooting ports those sneaky match directors like to throw at you!

The squishy is made out of a stretchy silk like material, as long as you’re not on something slick (sheet metal ish stuff) it’s fine. |

Take a look at the beaver tail for those tiny spots. Works well. |

Thanks, I don't see the slick thing being an issue. If you guys were going to buy a squeeze bag, which would you buy? Having never used a rear bag at all or shot any kind of competition I'm going at this with only what I'm learning from you guys. |

Looks like the Armageddon Gear "Squishy" is the winner. Seems to be very popular among shooters, is a GA business and doubles as one those squeezie frustration widgets for when I inevitably shoot terrible groups.

The triad wedge is a great bag for AR’s and bolt guns. It’s my preferred bag for shooting groups that meets MOA requirements.

Armageddon gear makes some great stuff, I’ve literally got 4-500$ worth of their bags (3x gamechangers, X-wing, 3+ fatbags), maybe some others that I’m forgetting. The squishy bag is probably great, and I know it’ll last a long time, I’ve just found the Triad wedge to be great for the cost. It just seems to work better than most for AR’s, and most any bag can work with a bolt gun. I keep one in a range bag and 1 in the trunk of my car at all times. |
