Hi all,
I'm thinking about trying out a different bag rest setup.
Currently, I'm using the Caldwell rock Jr, with their tall rear rabbit ear bag. I'm shooting a t3x superlite in 30 06.
This setup seems to work pretty well for me, but with such a lightweight rifle in this cartridge, it's somewhat hard for me to get consistency from my rest and bag setup. I attached some pictures of groups that I typically get from this rifle at 100yds, using Sierra pro Hunter 150gr, cci200 primers, and 57.2gr h4350. I want to start developing 180-200gr bullet loads, but think I need something a bit more solid and consistent before adding more recoil.
I was wondering if anyone has experience comparing the three types of bags mentioned in my thread title- the Caldwell tack driver, bulls bag, and dog gone good bags.
The Caldwell and dog gone good seem more similar to each other than the bulls bag. I really like the price of the Caldwell but am wondering if the quality and function of the other two are far enough ahead of it that the extra money is worth it.
Thanks!!!
