Having recently added a Portico to my rig I'm looking for a bag to accommodate it, a 722, mic bodies, batteries etc. as my beloved Nova 4 just isn't big enough. I like the look of a PortaBrace but am unsure of what line (AR7 etc.) will suit me. If anyone has any thoughts as to a suitable bag/solution, PortaBrace or otherwise, they'd certainly be of great help.

what about the nova 5?

seconded. lots of room in the 5.

dunno if i'm totally off base but you may want to look into the AR-7 w/ a 442 bag in the middle of the 722 and RM-Multi

I've been using a wire rack holding the 722 and portico in an eastpack book bag.
Which mountainsmith lumbar bag is deeper than the cairne? Is there one with another 3-4" depth - that would fit the portico with RA connectors.

Not sure about 3-4" but the Mountainsmaith day pack is taller. Did we try to fit your portico in my pack? I can't remember.

something like this? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?A=details&Q=&is=REG&O=productlist&sku=262233
looks good, but am having a bit of a hard time finding the dimensions online. the portico is 9-inches deep, so it'll need to be this deep plus a little more for the ra xlrs etc.
what about the nova 5?
that too was my first thought, though i found it's only 6-inches deep.
may need to bite the bullet as per lil' kim and build a target-style rack for placement in a backpack.

while I am not sure the size of the Portico, I dont see how the Nova5 wouldnt work for you...
I have previously stuffed in my Nova5 (for festival purposes):
DA-P1
V3
SD MP-2
Sony M1 and SBM1
2x 6V12AH SLA
2 sets of mics (1 full bodied AKG 391 and 1 active set of Geffells)
2 sets of XLR
shocks, clamps, tbars, misc cables, adaptors, etc
granted it was a tight fit with all of that in it at one time, but I cant see a 722 and Portico plus a set of mics and battery taking up more room than what I above squeezed in...
