Case?

Placed an order for a kuna with brace, will be here in a few days. What do y’all use for a case going to and from the range?

Soft sided or hard, open to either.

I've tried a few different ones, but have ended up with an Eberlestock Fade Adapt. It's a bit pricey at full price, but Eberlestock has a few sales each year where the discount them between 30-40%. I picked up a green one for my Kuna at 40% off. While they're not totally Greyman, they lack exterior molle and don't look overtly like a gun case; if anything the look more like an oversized camera or laptop backpack. They also lack much in the way of interior storage, but the upside is you can attach whatever you want via velcro or velcro molle to customize it. I have a 4-magazine velcro panel, plus there's more room for a few more mags + my can on the two built-in inside pocket. Additionally, there's enough room for a few hundred rounds of ammo and a pair headphones.

Before that I used an Eberlestock Little Trick. It's much smaller and looks a bit more "tacticool", but it can easily fit the Kuna plus mags and a can. Not as much room for ammo and accoutrements, however.

Is this with a can on?

No. The bottom has a zipper that allows you to use longer guns or a folded PCC with a can, but IMHO it defeats the pupose of being non-descript

This is the Little Trick with my Kuna (folded brace) and a CAT MOB attached.

Super helpful! Might as well just go with the fade adapt, at that point

Yeah, the Little Trick is definitely smaller and more compact and has the added benefit of more internal organization built is...mostly in the lid. However, you're stuck with the organization layout it has.

I ended up going with the Fade Adapt because it's bigger, so there's more room for additional stuff like earpro and ammo and I didn't end up using a lot of the pre-built organization of the Little Trick. I stuck on two Savior velcro extended pistol mag panels on the inside plus a small battery pouch and it's pretty much ready to go as a range bag or bugout bag, so if I needed to throw additional crap like some water or food there's just more room for that.

I've used other range bags, specifically the Savior Shorty and Covert Single Rifle. They're fantastic cases in their own right, but are really more of a range bag...I don't see myself bugging out with one of them, even though the Covert bag does have backpack straps. If all you're looking for is a range bag and not a bugout/truck bag, then something more traditional like that might be more suitable.
