MDT Renegade Shooting Bags

MDT Sporting Goods has just unveiled its lightest shooting bag yet, the new MDT Renegade that weighs less than two ounces. This compact shooting bag is meant for hunters or other rifle shooters who need to traverse rugged and technical backcountry terrain or anyone needing a ultra-light shooting rest. The MDT Renegade keeps its weight down by using a lightweight external ripstop fabric shell and Spex Lite 5524B fill. Unlike sand, which clumps together and retains moisture (and thus weight), the Spex Lite 4424B fill is water resistant and does not change in shape when exposed to water. For additional durability and portability, the MDT Renegade shooting bag also includes a carabiner loop and a hand strap with a buckle. The bag is currently available in three different colors: olive drab green, brown and grey.

Even with its modern fill and cutting edge ripstop external covering, the MDT Renegade shooting bag still has a pillowy build so that it can better conform to both the rifle and the surface beneath the rifle. Shooting bags such as the MDT Renegade have become indispensable to modern rifle shooters as they act like flexible shims to aid rifle shooters and hunters in steadying their rifles from almost any supported position. This extra stability increases accuracy in the field, and with their lightweight design, bags like the MDT Renegade are easy to carry around all day.

MDT Renegade Shooting Bag Features:

  • Exceptionally lightweight: Weighs under 2 ounces, making it the lightest shooting bag available, perfect for long-distance hunters who are conscious of pack weight.
  • Durable construction: Made from highly tear-resistant ripstop material, designed to withstand harsh environments and tough use.
  • Water-resistant: Features Spex Lite 5524B fill, which is resistant to moisture and maintains consistency in wet conditions.
  • Versatile stability: The bag’s soft, pillow-like structure conforms to any surface, providing reliable rifle stability and includes a high-strength buckled handle strap for easy adjustment.

Specifications:

  • Weight: Less than 2 ounces
  • Materials: Ripstop fabric, Spex Lite 5524B fill
  • Dimensions: 8.5 inches x 5 inches x 2.75 inches
