The midwayusa bags are good and inexpensive. A five gallon bucket is free and durable.

Large Midway USA range bag.

I take it when doing load development. It will carry everything.

Check out LAPolicegear they have some really good bags for really good prices. I don't have one of their range bags but I do carry one of their backpacks everyday in my truck and it is better quality than some of the bags I've had that were triple the cost.

Check out GPS brand bags. Best range bags made IMO.

I don't have one but I suggest a bag with wheels. I lug around a Wilson Combat bag. When its loaded with handguns and ammo, its a heavy sucker.

Go to Goodwill and pick up a used rolling carry on bag. This piece of luggage will have one large compartment and several small zippered pockets and will cost less than ten bucks.

As a range bag, it'll be good as any and better than most.

Midway has their top range bag on sale for $40. Looks good to me.

I use a Husky tool bag from Home Depot. It has pockets, dividers, is made of heavy quality nylon and a good zipper with a wide opening. Here's a link:

Midway USA has great bags at inexpensive prices....My preference is any of the stuff Maxpedition makes

I use the Midway bag and like it a lot. Well thought out piece, minus the silly brass bag.

I need a new bag as well. I currently use a Nike backpack for my range bag. People probably think that old man is still in school. I guess the plus side of the Nike bag is people don't think it is filled my guns haha.

Sears Craftsman bag.
Got a 2 bag set on sale for $9.99
I used the medium one. It holds:
- old t-shirt
- gun oil
- gun tools
- Ammo
- Magazines
- Binoculars
- Sand bag
- hearing and eye protection

If I am just doing a pistol or shotgun range day I can take out the sand bag and binoculars and fit a pistol or two in their soft cases.

Depends on what I'm shooting and how much crap I gotta drag along with me. If it's just a couple pistols I use a Maxpedition Versipak, if it's rifles and junk I use a Tactical Taylor multi-purpose bag.

Well I was going to get the midway bag since it was on sale and then got to thinking about it and decided I would rather use a backpack since I am going to start competing I think it will be better to carry that from stage to stage instead of a range back.

Thanks for all the ideas guys
