    Large Range Bag Suggestions

    I know - probably asked frequently. Still sorting through my search results, but wanted to get some ideas of what some of you guys are currently using. I'm looking for a large bag, with exterior pockets for small items such as ear pro, eye pro, timer, bottle of water, etc, and would love a pocket dedicated to mags with retention loops of some sort. Large interior space that can be divided into sections would be sweet. Would like to keep the price under $200 - would LOVE to keep the price under $150. Any ideas? Spotted a nice bag at Eagle, and one at Maxpedition - but price is on the upper limit. Thought I'd check with the knowledge base before shelling out that kind of cheddar.

    Check Bagmaster. They're stuff is built like a bank vault and in the USA. I have one of their bags that I've used for 2-3 matches a month for several years and it still looks new.

    I've got the Tac-Force range bag in the small size and really like it a lot. It's built like a tank. I looked at the large size in a shop and thought it might be too big. Wished I would have got it now. The small size is fine if you are taking handguns and a couple hundred rounds of ammo for yourself. When I loaded it up a couple weeks ago loaded up with ammo for 22 rifle, handgun and the AR with mags for all 3 it was stuffed - and I only had 1 set of ears in it.

    The week after I noticed the Miday range bag on sale for $39 and ordered it. It is large and holds a ton of gear. Will be nice when I want to carry all the above and an extra set of ears for the wife and other stuff. It's built very good but not as good as the Tac-Force range bag. For the money though, the Midway bag is a no brainer.

    If you google Midway range bag review you'll find several reviews with lots of pics.
