There is also room for knee and elbow pads in there, and maybe a face mask.
You don't have to remove your Harris Bipod and replace it every time you move to a new location when predator hunting. And for chucks, prairie dogs, grey diggers I can have my smaller rifle all ready and just extend the legs and set it next to the shooting benches for when close shots appear w/out putting anything together. Or, get out of the vehicle and go for a stroll. I have been waiting for enough to make $150 and use a $20 off coupon, have also been watching for it to go on sale so I could have both my 17 Hornet and Bridget's all put together and ready in the back of the truck. BIG help when you have kids along.
Here's a hint. I had my sister in law sew loop handles on the zipper side. The long leather strap just doesn't work for me in most cases nearly as well.
