Looking to buy a TuffPak 1050 if anyone has one laying around they are willing to part with. Figured I’d try here before I bought a new one through Nalpak.
This article from Bill Heavy is a good read regarding this topic. Would always give it a read when I felt backed into a corner.

I work as a year round hunting and fishing guide right now. Make decent money, hunt more for myself then I did prior to guiding year round. The catch is you have to be willing to travel to follow the seasons. I spend about 6 months in Alaska then the rest of my year is split between Montana and...

I’ll be using it as a guide rifle so it’s for backup shots primarily. Couple of the other guides and outfitter have the older Leupold vxr patrols...
Well it’s been a few years since I first posted this. But wanted to give and update and share my experiences so far. I was set to come to Alaska and work as a packer in 2020, but as we all know covid came along and that put a damper on that. Life happened and I wasn’t able to make it up till the...
I’ve hunted this area a lot. It’s always chaos when the muzzleloader season is on. But there is no excuse for what happened. 90 day’s is a slap on the hand..
If you’re ever curious about a tip I’d just directly ask the outfitter. Should be able to tell you if it’s a normal practice there and a typical amount.
