    Thoughts on eberlestock packs

    I owned an Eberlestock Skycrane. It was really heavy, and not comfortable to carry with heavy loads. I sold it and got a Seek Outside Brooks, which I love.

    Ultralight spotter?

    I have a Kowa 553. Optics are very good. It's a great lightweight scope. (you can save even more weight by pairing it with an ultralight tripod.)

    Anyone Ever Tried the Klymit Inertia x lite torso length pad?

    I have one. (have the full length version too.) It's fine for summer use. Not as comfortable as the neoair, but it's ok. Certainly better than the evazote foam pads I used when I started out camping. If you don't have "old bones" that ache in the morning, it's a good way to save some...

    Range finder

    Sig Kilo 2400 Ranges well out to 1000 yards, which is probably more than I would ever shoot while hunting. The integrated ballistics program works well and gives me accurate information for adjusting my scope for range.

    Water Filtration

    I use chlorine dioxide tablets. Lighter than a filter. No bad taste.

    Pouch for Backpack Hip belt to carry pistol?

    My daughter is going on an extended, solo backpacking trip. I have convinced her to carry a gun with her. I'm looking for a pouch that will attach to the hip belt of her backpack. I've seen a lot of them that close with a zipper. I'd prefer one that closes with velcro or magnets. Any...

    Anyone else on here that DOESN’T shoot a lightweight rifle particularly well?

    A heavy rifle allows for techniques which won't work on light rifles. I have some very light hunting rifles, and I have to shoot them very differently than I do my heavy rifles. Here is an article that helped me learn to shoot my lightweight rifles much better...

    Critique My Loadout?

    A few things I didn't see on your list that are worth taking: Sunscreen Sunglasses Windicator Colorado is a hunter orange state. You will need an orange hat and vest. Chlorine dioxide tablets weigh next to nothing. A good back-up to the water filter (which can clog and/or freeze.)...

    My new favorite wool pants

    The pants are full wool. The ripstop panels are reinforcements over the wool.

    My new favorite wool pants

    I looked at the jacket online, but didn't buy it. I've already got several wool tops I like a lot, so I resisted the urge to purchase it. I agree it looks very nice. There's actually a couple of jackets, one more like a softshell, and one more like a jacket.

    My new favorite wool pants

    I like wool. It has great temperature regulation in both hot and cold climates, and tends to keep me comfortable across a broader range of temperatures than synthetics. There are quite a few good wool options for base layers and torso. (My favorites are Voormi's amazing wool soft shell...

    Bino Harness Recommendation

    I've tried many. (All the most popular brands.) Outdoor Vision is my current favorite. Less bulky, less fiddly opening, closed design gives full protection from dust and precipitation.

    Another warmest puffy thread

    Not a hunting company, but the Arcteryx Dually belay parka is designed for cold, wet conditions. I have one, and it is an excellent, extremely warm parka. Arc'teryx Dually Belay Parka: Avoiding Wetness for Winter Warmth - Alpinist.com Field Tested Review: Arc’teryx Solo Hoody & Dually Belay...

    Has Anyone "Downgraded" Their Optics?

    I moved from Swarovski and Leica and now use Kowa Prominars. I don't feel like I lost any performance at all.

    Gear List Critique

    My experience exactly. Go up a size with the bottoms. I also prefer the Peloton 200s.
