Time to wipe out stock at TJ Maxx! I got this for $15 and my Ridge Runner fits inside with no issues. It will also work with Predator or most DIY platforms.

Doesn't seem to be listed on their websites (TJ Maxx or Highland Tactical).
 
kinda off topic, are you using a whoopie sling on your ridge runner?
Not a whoopie, but a 7/64" amsteel daisy chain. Folks on the site explained how to use it properly and I gave it a third try and won't go back now. It locked on solid to a hard, slick sycamore this weekend that I dreaded, but had no problems and zero movement.
 
I got the same pack at Marshall’s a few weeks ago. The material at the top opening is kind of loud. I feel like I should get a platform with all the space in the pack...
 
Does this work well in the field?
I forgot to post, but I have used it 3x now and I am loving it. These were all local, short walk hunts in either preset trees or using my Heliums. I would still use it on a deeper hunt, but I may add a fanny pack for additional items for that, depending.

Thanks! I was looking for something like this to pair with a fanny pack or to use to hold my RR and saddle inside, or outside, of a larger pack if I am packing a lot in. I have only found it on E-bay so far. Seems like a good find, thanks for sharing!

Not easy to find something that big beauty will fit in. Looks like a good setup.

I sewed a simple pouch yesterday from spare fleece to wrap around the RR and keep it from chewing on the pack or anything else stuffed in with it. Next step is to play with kydex and mold a cover to go on the tree teeth for easy on and off (inspired by your WE steps holster).
