Don’t need no rear bag - S2H University

You dont take it off... why would you need to?

Does this damage the binos in anyway?

Here we go, I can just see @Ryan Avery and @Formidilosus pondering a "Bino Crush Test" ...

Haha. I’m just imagining my rifle hitting up against them.

The rifle is supported by your non-trigger hand, so the rifle is not in contact with binos. There are some good videos/photos demoing this earlier in this thread. Thumb and index finger support (pinch/grasp) the rife, and bottom 3 fingers grasp or squeeze the rear bag (bino harness).

This thread and the videos have been super helpful. After trying 6 various rear bags with a combination of bipods or a front bag this summer, I started using the bino harness as a rear rest and am shooting much better. This is so fast off the backpack it’s comical thinking about how much I used to struggle with this stuff before Rokslide.

So I’ve been thumbing it all wrong for some time. At my 5 year mark I’ll start a thread of all the things I’ve learned from this site. Knowledge is free. Now I have to apply what I’ve learned.
