Well I ended up picking up my new barricade bag today. Extremely fast shipping from NC, 2 business days to Washington for 10$ USD. Talk about a deal!

It is fairly heavy, I believe this is one of their newest models with their proprietary heavy plastic pellets. Able to be used on barricades 1/2" to 4" wide. Made of 1000 cordura with a nylon strap and zippered enclosure for pellets. They also included a hand signed thank you on the receipt as well as logo'd bivy, patch and some dope cards haha...

So far just trying it out around the house dry firing, its as advertised. It makes creating a position so much easier, it feels like basically cheating!
Can't wait to try it out with some live fire tomorrow. Will be interesting to see how much it improves my barricade game.
 
That is a serious barricade bag! Can't wait to see it in action next weekend man!

My bag selection is pretty limited. For barricades, I'll be running the Armageddon Gear Grippy Flat bag.
 
I ordered one and got him to ship it with the prize table stuff. I haven't had a chance to play with it yet, it's still sitting at Bulls Eye.

Haha, actually it is. I went from 2/5 hits on a 12" gong at 300y to 4/5 hits from the lowest level of prs skills stage 2. Only thing that changed was the reasor bag. When slung up I could watch impacts at 300y gong while on a barricade. I'm fairly pleased that I made the purchase.
 
Skills #2 is a 10" plate at 400y.

fyi, you can get similar functionality to that bag on some stuff with a pump pillow or similar. Just put it on top and put the rifle on top of the bag.
 
I should have been more clear, I mean the "skills stage 2" prop, not the actual stage itself. I made a fairly small barricade (36" tall 10" wide) in similar height to the lowest level (28"), as thats all I can fit in my sedan. Nor do I have access to a 400yd range or 10" round.

I tried doing that with my fat bags, but they are too soft so after each shot I have to reposition. Sounds like I may need to get another bag, already got 6....
 
I will have to design my stages to cancel out the benefits of this bag now (insert evil match director laugh).

I just use a little bean bag underneath my fore end, I am sure lots of things could work, I could probably make it work with my tac pac as well would be my guess.
 
The nice thing is, it stays in place and won't fall down. I tried using the regular fatbag as a barricade pad, it was too soft (in my opinion) and I couldn't really push into the barricade. With this bag, I can push into the barricade and actually see where my shots land. It lets me use my trigger guard as a barricade stop against the bag.
 
If you really want something stable, crush the fat bag between your mag and the barricade and hook your bipod over it so that the metal on the podloc catches the other side of the barricade.
 
Hm, maybe if I was using a conventional rifle. My magazine is by my armpit. So what I did was position my bipod so it held the bag tight between my trigger guard and bipod.
 
What I find super stable is hooking the big mounting nub for my versa-pod (the big chunk of plastic that has the spigot on it) over the barricade. The rifle then sits on the pig skin I mounted to the bottom of the stock. I clip my sling onto a biner on my belt and crank down. Put my support hand on the barricade behind the bipod. Nice and solid.
 
Finally found some time to play with this thing. It lives up to its name! Here it is over a tripod head with nothing attached:



You can put it over anything it will fit over (a post, a branch, a bannister...) and put the rifle on it and the best way to describe it is if you took a worn-in Pump Pillow, sat it on a flat surface and put the rifle on it. Its a little on the heavy side, but if you took it hunting you could set up a shot off of many things you'd find out in the bush very easily.

That does look pretty damn stable. Have you tried it over a barricade yet with your tripod behind so as to grab it with your support hand to support the rear of the rifle? I'd bet it would be rock solid! You get that down in the States?
 
I've only played with it dry firing. He sponsored MLRSC, so I purchased a bag from him and got it shipped with the prize bags.
 
I picked one up from Red Star Targets and played with it last night. I think it looks kind of hokey but darn does it seem to work.

It is one of those things that has a specific purpose and can't be used everywhere but so far my impressions are good.
 
It has quite a few uses actually. In addition to fences and thin barricades, it kills rooftops and works really well on rocks. Even if it bends up, the two corners still work to stabilize the rifle. I've used it both ways on a rooftop. Over the rooftop and shooting in line with the peek. Put it down in the front and used it to support the bipod feet so that it raise things up and the mag wasn't hitting.
 
I am thinking about sewing a strap on it (lets be real here I will ask my Mom...) but I can't decide yet. I am worried it will interfere with mag changes.
