Stable support for precision at the shooting range
The Caldwell Standard Rear Bag filled medium provides the reliable support you need when zeroing your rifle or during accurate shots at the shooting range. This sandbag combines high-quality leather with sturdy polyester for a durable solution that maintains its shape, even after intensive use. The sandbag comes pre-filled with ground corn cob core from the factory, allowing you to get started immediately without having to source filling material yourself.
Ideal for benchrest and load development
When developing your own loads or testing new ammunition, consistency is crucial. This rear bag works seamlessly with virtually all brands of front rests and provides a stable platform for your rifle stock. The medium-high version has the right height for use with standard 4" center post supports such as the Caldwell Rock and comparable systems. The leather top surface provides a non-slip surface that prevents scratches on your rifle, while the polyester material does not stretch or sag under the weight.
The filled version not only saves you the effort of filling it yourself, but also ensures optimal consistency. Ground corn cob core stays dry longer than sand and doesn't clump together, which is particularly useful in changing weather conditions at the shooting range. The sandbag weighs enough to remain stable, but is also easy to take along in your shooting bag.
Compatible with various shooting disciplines
Whether you're engaged in F-Class shooting, benchrest competitions, or simply want to zero your hunting rifle, this rear bag delivers the stability you're looking for. The classic "rabbit ear" shape with two raised parts on the sides makes it possible to make fine vertical adjustments by simply moving the stock between the ears. This gives you control over your point of aim without having to move the entire setup.
For long-range shooters working on load development, this type of sandbag is indispensable. The combination of a good front rest with this rear bag eliminates much of the human factor from the equation, allowing you to truly assess the performance of your ammunition. Especially when testing different powder charges or seating depths, you'll notice the difference that stable rear support makes on your group sizes.
Durable material built to last
The high-quality leather not only provides a reliable grip surface, but also lasts for years. The polyester maintains the shape perfectly, even after hundreds of shooting sessions. Caldwell's craftsmanship is clearly visible in the strong stitching and thoughtful construction. This sandbag doesn't need velcro strips or complicated attachment systems - you simply place it on the bench and it does its job.
The filled weight ensures that the sandbag remains stable during shooting, but it is compact enough to transport easily at the same time. For shooters who regularly visit different ranges, this is a practical solution that doesn't take up much space in your shooting bag or trunk.
