Full Fat Bag Lineup

Armageddon Gear Fat Bags shooting bags are an ultralight and versatile solution to a rifleman’s need for weapon and body support in the field and on the range. The Fat Bags feature a Cordura nylon outer shell filled with airweight beads. Medium and Large sizes feature dual elastic straps with Milspec hook and loop for attachment to yourself or your equipment, and include a Bungee Gear Lanyard and ITW Nexus Tac Link to allow easy attachment to belt loops or equipment and easy use in a variety of positions without the need to remove the tether.

That latter size is pictured with 5-round and 10-round AICS mags (not included) for perspective.

Rethinking Ragù: Venison Ragù Bianco

This version uses axis deer simply because that’s what I happened to have in the freezer, but this sauce works beautifully with almost any species of venison.
