I created a controller path to return a css file, which works, and returns Response.ContentType = "text/css".
Now I'm trying to put that URL in my bundles file, like this:
bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/Content/custom").Include(
"~/CSS/Custom/1"
));
NOTE: /CSS/Custom/1 is a route that returns a text/css file.
In my view I have:
@Styles.Render("~/Content/custom")
When I build the project, the bundler returns this in my HTML:
<link href="/Content/custom?v=" rel="stylesheet"/>
When I view the files source, It's empty.
How do I get this to work?

After taking a look at it in reflector, during the bundling process it will take the virtual path to the item and check to make sure the file exists. (Code below) So bundling without CDN absolutely requires a file, not an application route.
CDNs never hit this line, they take a different path.
