Custom or DIY front bag for Sinclair competition front rest.

[tinymike66]

Hello.
I got a Sinclair competition front rest for cheap..under $400 shipped.
This rest has the all purpose top not the BR top.
The seller included an Edgwood 3" bag but over all length is 5.25". The all purpose top maxes out at 5".
Anyone know where I can get a bag that measures less than 5" but supports a 3" stock?
Has anyone ever made one themselves?

Cheers.
Mike.

I had the same problem.
Got a Caldwell bag. Still not very secure, but at least it fits.
Wrapped a cable tie around it for now.
I wish I had not gotten the All-Purpose top.
If you find a better solution let me know.

Might have to buy the BR top. It's 75 U.S.
I do have a contact for a guy who makes rests.
90 + 20 ship.
That's 110 total.... still keeps me at 500 total.
Not bad considering the complete rest sells for 699.99 USD and I'll have 2 tops. One for competition and one for Varmit or standard stocks.

My solution is to buy a Protektor Model Owl Ear Front bag for $22 + a few buck shipping from Amazon. com, shipped to my buddy's cabin in PA.
It has tabs to tie the bag to the underside of the rest.
