The Protektor Model #1 Small Owl Ear Front Bag is a precision front support designed for use with mechanical rests, providing stable, consistent positioning for sporter and hunting-style rifle forends.
Its owl ear design features a narrow, contoured channel that supports the forend securely while allowing smooth tracking and minimal side movement. This helps maintain alignment and improves repeatability during zeroing and bench shooting.
Constructed from top grain leather, the bag offers excellent durability and grip, helping keep the rifle steady without slipping. Supplied unfilled, it allows you to customise firmness and weight to suit your shooting setup
