Edgewood bags with 3M Slick material

[papadetail]

Was looking to pick up a new rear bag, adn possibly update the one on my Sinclair rest (real old cast one much like current version).

Was searching the site and looks like 2 quality manufacturers you can't go wrong with. Went to Edgewood's site, and had been thinking of buying the Cordura bags (synthetic stocks on my rifles).

Saw they are now offering "Slick material" made by 3M, advising you don't need to use talcum or silicone spray with these, and that they are slicker than either of those.

Was wondering if anyone on the site had tried them and what their thoughts were, before breaking open the wallet and ordering. Otherwise would get plain Corura bags from Sinclair or Midway.

Thanks!

Free Recoil?

If you shoot free recoil you can't go wrong, if you have to hold the rifle don't bother!

Over on the centerfire forum there is a recent thread largely led by Bart Sauter on bag setup, bag fill, rest tightness, etc. there is much to learn there and a lot of it translates to the rimfire world if you're shooting over bags.

Page 13. Talks about bags being too slick. Slick is not good contrary to popular belief.

Took me a bit to find it, but I think this is the thread. Thanks for the heads up!

That's it. That thread is gold.
