What should actually be in a range bag? In this Brownells Tech Tip, Caleb and Jude dump out their real-world range bags and walk through the gear they actually keep on hand for range days, zeroing sessions, new shooters, and unexpected problems. From eye and ear protection to med gear, tools, batteries, targets, and precision rifle support equipment, this video covers a practical range bag setup for both general shooting and more advanced rifle work.
Jude shows a straightforward, useful setup built around the basics: eye pro, gloves, targets, a rangefinder, a medical kit, notes, lube, grease, cleaning gear, and hand tools. Caleb takes things a step further with a more built-out system that includes trauma gear, a Kestrel, a Garmin chronograph, rangefinding binos, shot timers, support bags, batteries, and a dedicated field tool kit. Together, they cover what matters, what gets used, and what is worth keeping in your bag.
If you are trying to build a better range bag for pistol shooting, rifle shooting, zeroing optics, or introducing new shooters to the range, this video gives you a solid place to start.
