The Protektor #18 Pillow Bag is designed to support your shooting position, providing a stable elbow and arm rest for improved comfort and control during bench shooting.
With its flat pillow-style design and larger footprint, it can be used in multiple ways – as well as an ideal elbow support/comfort rest it can double as a rear or front support, though is not as effective in those roles as a dedicated front or rear bag.
Constructed from top grain leather, it offers excellent durability and grip, helping keep your setup stable without slipping. Supplied unfilled, it allows full control over weight and firmness depending on your preferred shooting style.
Commonly used for:
- Arm or elbow support for comfort
- Rear support in bench rest light set up
- Front support for lightweight setups
- General stabilisation on the bench
Compared to shaped bags:
- More versatile (multi-use positioning)
- Easier to adjust quickly
