    Rear bag height


    I have changed my Axis 223 from a Boyds stock to a Oryx Chassis. I like much of the features f the Oryx including magazine and fit. Problem I am having is rear bag fit while shooting prone. On the Boyds moving the back or forward to adjust height and using the ears for fine adjustment worked. On the Oryx I only have one height. Give me some advise?

    You could get a taller AR bag and ride the forward rail below the
    cheek rest. I see several people doing this at the range.
    I was just on the Protektor site looking for some options for the
    new build, and noticed the taller AR bags. If your somewhat handy,
    you could attach a longer rail between the grip and butt. It's what
    I did on my MDT HS3

    Make your own on the cheap. Walmart sells those Polly pellets in the sewing section.

    Thanks guys I like the tip my bag idea. I think that I'm going to replace my bipod with a Harris BRMS with 1 inch notches to get close. I also filled my bag as full as I could get it to maybe give me more vertical control. I'll let you know.
    I like using the bags ears to get that last little bit.

    I made my own. Had a bunch of airsoft bb's laying around. Double zip lock bags to keep them from 'leaking' out. Denim bag of appropriate size from Hobby Lobby (no 'ears'). I eventually sewed the open end for convenience. 'Punch' it in place for initial 'set'. Then squeeze for final adjustment.
