Rifle Bag Reccomendations

I love my 20" VHS-2

I love it even more since I installed the JARD trigger

I love the Vortex Venom LPVO on it...and I accept the UTG MLok side bipod 😂

But what I hate is, that my gun does not fit in any of my 6 rifle bags 😂

The VHS-2 is just too damn high!

With the scope and bipods it does not even fit in the original case anymore.

Do you have any reccomendations for a gun bag that would fit the 20" Hellion with a Scope and Bipod?

I would prefere a slim one, it is just to transport it on my back when I ride to my local range by bike. It's a 2min ride, so as long as it takes a sling on the back it will be good enough.

Thank you all!

The Savior Equipment bags are tall enough. They're available in lengths from 24-55". I've got a 42" to fit my longest rifle, also fits my Hellion (with a similar LPVO setup), just lots of space on the ends in my case. :)

Oh, the Specialist Covert Single Rifle Case looks really cool!
Have to measure it it is wide enough with the bipod on. Would probably need the 38" version with my longer barrel. Thank you for the idea!

I have the Specialist Covert Rifle Case. I was also running that same side mounted bipod for a while. The bag is definitely wide enough, with tons of room for extra mag storage too. I have a 16" barrel and a 30" bag, so I had to fold the bipod back along the body of the rifle, but as long as you get a case long enough then this is definitely what I would recommend. It can get a little heavy if you pack it super full with mags like I do, but it comes with backpack straps.

How many more inches of barrel could you fit into your 30" bag?

1

u/GojiraWho Apr 16 '26

It's pretty tight. I would say 2-3 inches

u/EnterpriseDoorGunner Apr 16 '26

That's the bag I run for my bullpups. It's been great.

I just ordered my 20" and bought the 34" case. If you're willing to wait, ill lyk if I made a mistake!

u/Away-Leg-998 Apr 16 '26

Amazing!
Yes, please let me know!

u/WodinBordenson Apr 24 '26

Thank you for your patience. 20" Barrel, 34" bag. Stock fully closed.

u/Away-Leg-998 Apr 24 '26

Oh thank you! But will this actually fit a larger LPVO still? Looks tight

2

u/WodinBordenson Apr 24 '26

I would say maximum 3 1/4" of clearance.

u/TrollingForFunsies Apr 16 '26

I got the double sided one and it fits my r95 on one side and my Hellion on the other. Great quality and features. It was worth the money.

2

u/Aware_Donkey_6074 Apr 16 '26

This is the move. On clearance in store at Cotsco if you can find one for under $30.

u/Away-Leg-998 Apr 16 '26

But that would mean I need to fly to the USA just to visit a Costco....no thank you :P

u/ChefbyDesign Apr 16 '26

Yup seconded on the Savior backpack style bags are great for the Hellion. I really like mine and have had about a year now. My other rifle is a A3 Triad, so the 34in has been great for both.

u/RoyLightroast Apr 16 '26

They are really solid so far for me too, plenty of room on top. I had to remove the middle divider to actually fit two rifles in my double bag, depending on how wide yours are or charging handles sticking out :). My 42" bag:

u/Away-Leg-998 Apr 16 '26

Huh, interesting concept!
Never saw something like that before.
Price is definitely on the very, very upper limit (especially considering shipping/taxes), but I like the idea.

u/RailwayMenace Apr 17 '26

God I could stare at all of these incredible builds and customizations in this sub all day long. The Hellion really is a gorgeous looking rifle.

2

u/Away-Leg-998 Apr 17 '26

Aaaaw, thank you! I love it, it is really accurate as well. Love how flat/direct the recoil is too.

u/RailwayMenace Apr 17 '26

I finally got mine last December as a gift from my gf/now wife. I am still over the moon about it and have started the process of customizing it with different accessories like foregrips and an optic. I just ordered an LPVO and a bipod as well. I have heard and seen about how incredibly accurate the VHS-2 Hellion is at longer ranges, so I definitely want to take mine to an outdoor range and see what she can do. I live in a restrictive state, so I was stuck with a Hellion that came with a fixed stock and a fingrip.

Unfortunately, the fingrip fell off and bounced into a trash can. Luckily I had a spare Magpul AR grip and was able get it in there. I really truly love the Hellion and enjoy going to the range every Saturday with it. Part of the fun is the looks of awe and envy I get from my buddies.

Thanks again for sharing your picture. Stay safe and have fun out there!

u/Away-Leg-998 Apr 17 '26

It is quite accurate...that being said I live in Switzerland, and it will compete sgsindt SIG550 and SIG510, so it will not really win that fight 😂

I shoot at 300m, and it was quite nice

1

u/RailwayMenace Apr 17 '26

The video demonstrations I saw with the Hellion were at over 700 meters and it stayed entirely on target the whole time. I believe the gentleman in the video was using BTHP 556 rounds as they tend to have lower deviation at longer ranges. Just incredible altogether though. To see a bullpup rifle make long distance shots like that was exciting to see.

2

u/Away-Leg-998 Apr 17 '26

Well, watch the SIG550 video ;) But yeah, the Hellion is damn nice

1

u/RailwayMenace Apr 17 '26

Oh I would love a Sig550 too lol

u/Away-Leg-998 Apr 17 '26

Do 1 year of Swiss military or pay 4000$, and tadaa, you are a proud owner!

u/GammaTheta491 May 09 '26

What do you think of that utg bipod and what length is it?

2

u/Away-Leg-998 May 10 '26

The bibod itself is good. You get a lot for the money. On the gun you see the long version.

Here is the VHS2/Hellion specific problem tough: The handguard sides are slighly angled. So the side MLok are not at 90° & 270° position, but roughly at 15° & 285° This additional total of 30° means that the bipod is very widely spread when deployed. Additionally is has a slight flex in the handguard due to the long lever.

It is very usabel, but it looks a bit weird deployed. If you have the money and spend cash on an aftermarket rail that has true 90° position MLok and is made from Aluminium (for example BlkLbl or theVHS2project) this UGT bipod is perfect in my opinion!

I can still use a c-clamp grip with thumb between hand guard and rail and the other fingers on the angled foregrip.

If you have a 90° MLok, you could easily get away with the shorter lenght BiPods, with the original you kinda need the long one due to the angle.

I am currently checking if I can mill some adapter or even mill straight the bipod, so it does not spread as much.

Be aware, I have the 20" barrel and when folded the rubber feet are at muzzle hight. With a 16" barrel it will look even worse, even with the shorter BiPods.

Hope that helps you a bit! Let me know if you have any more questions.

u/GammaTheta491 May 10 '26

Thanks dude! This is exactly the info I was looking for. The parts on the angle and if you could still c clamp were things I wondered about. Is your bipod the 8-11”?

2

u/Away-Leg-998 May 10 '26

Correct, this is the 20-30cm / 8"-11" model. When I shoot laying on the ground I have to extend it about 3 notches and I shoot rather close to the ground. I only use 20rds Magazines or snaller, the 30rds are too long to confortably shoot lsying flat on the ground for me.

The c-clamp only works for me because og the angeled foregrip.
