    What's in your range bag?

    I just got a new bag and started moving stuff over...the below list is what I pretty much always keep in the bag when headed to the range. Curious to see what you guys keep in your bags to see if there's anything I should add or take away from the list.

    • Ear Protection (primary + ear plugs)
    • Eye Protection
    • IFAK
    • Ammo
    • Extra Mags
    • Pistol
    • Targets (6" adhesive backed)
    • Monocular
    • Staple Gun
    • Multi-tool
    • Rag / Old Shirt
    • Lubricant
    • Bore Snakes
    • Membership Cards
    • Copies of Tax Stamps
    • Gloves
    • Pen
    • Small Notebook

    I have most of what you have listed. The only think I have missing is a secondary set of ear and eye protection. Well....no tax stamps either. No NFA items yet.

    I'd also add:

    front / rear bags (I have the Caldwell AR style)
    spotting scope
    container for brass (I use a big plastic tub from Utz cheese balls)
    snap caps (for training purposes...load one randomly in a pistol mag from time to time)
    Camera

    I also take my MTM "tactical" range box which contains quite a few tools and my full cleaning gear to include Dewey bore guides. I really like the box and use it to hold my ARs during cleaning when I clean on the range. I also take my Dewey rod when I anticipate I'll be cleaning the barrel during my session (e.g., breaking in a new barrel).

    BU, hope you keep an extra scope or set of sights also....

    Nah, I don't need them since I just shoot from the hip Chuck Norris style.

    But I do keep an optic in a Bobro QD in case any of my friends want to shoot.



    I'm just kidding of course - I don't have any friends.

    I've found I can't fit enough stuff in a bag. My whole truck is essentially my "range bag." I have,
    extra ammo (.223, .40 12ga, .38, 22LR),
    extra mags (AR, G22/35, 10/22)
    trauma kit
    DIY sand bags (filled with plastic pellets)
    Multi tool(s)
    Ear pro X3 plus disposable plugs
    Eye pro
    Rand CLP
    Otis Kit
    Binos
    Range Finder
    Adhesive backed targets (1", 3" and 6")
    Misprints from work (targets)
    Staple gun
    Packing tape
    Sharpie
    NFA paperwork is stored in my AR stock with a copy on my phone and glove box
    ETA: List grows exponentially during hunting season

    I keep a field notes pad for each weapon. It lists date and time, weather conditions, all the info for the gun, including issues, repairs and upgrades. Type and quantity of rounds and anecdotal, diary type comments.

    Laser rangefinder would be nice, but I probably wouldn't get a whole lot of use out of one right now. Everything is a known distance at the ranges I shoot at. I like the idea of having NFA paperwork stored on my phone as a backup.

    I normally pack a few additional items in my truck if I'm shooting rifles at the gun club. Really depends on what I'm shooting, or shooting at:

    * Front Rest - BR style or bag (or bipods)
    * Rear Rest - Depends on front rest and rifle
    * Shooting mat (and some cord for tying down)
    * Targets (Large)
    * Spotting scope if shooting targets past 100 yards (I use a monocular for 100 yards in, or for steel targets)

    Plus Maglulas, Allen wrench set and multi-tip screwdriver. Pot holder for hot can. Learned the hard way to put CLP in separate baggie.
