[QUOTE="Wingnut, post: 487557, member: 8721"] It depends on what kind of hunting you are doing. Eberlestock has one of the best rifle carry systems, but **** their packs are heavy. I have used them for trips up to 10 days with a pack out of an elk and it performed well. I have since used other packs and found that the Eberlestock carries the weight too far back and puts alot of stress on your lower back. Mystery ranch is a awesome pack. I have the Nice Wolf Alpha. It is a little big for day pack, but expands for up to 7 days. I purchased an Eberlestock gun scabbord and attached it to the side of the pack webbing. It worked great, better than Eberlestocks attached scabbords. I was able to move it around as my pack changed to balance the weight. If you are serious about backpack hunting then BuffaloBob has it spot on. Get a mountainneering pack that is designed for backpacking. It will be lighter, so you can other things, and better balanced for comfort. I have had issues with some of them not being tough enough for hunting. I am not sure why but I seem to be tough on a pack when I am hunting. [/QUOTE]
