Crossword Genius

Managed large bag for plunder (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ransack

'plunder' is the definition.
('ransack' can be a synonym of 'plunder')

'managed large bag' is the wordplay.
'managed' becomes 'ran' (I've seen this before).
'large bag' becomes 'sack' (I've seen this before).
'ran'+'sack'='RANSACK'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for ransack that I've seen before include "Examine thoroughly" , "Pillage, plunder" , "Search thoroughly and roughly" , "Search thoroughly and destructively" , "Plunder or turn upside down in search" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
