[QUOTE="mcseal2, post: 560309, member: 22030"] My list keeps getting tweaked a little at a time as I decide to upgrade, or get gear purchased for the first time. I won't post the whole thing again now, not enough changes yet, but here is the current weights. This is still for my pack, and planning on having a second person splitting shelter weight. I have everything on an excel spreadsheet now, and bought a postage scale so all weights are correct to 1/10oz. My total pack weight (including eberlestock, rifle, binoculars, tripod,5 days food, water) 46.6lbs Without rifle or bogpod with optic and shooting heads 35.9lbs. Without food/water 26.5lbs Gear without pack, 19.5lbs It makes a difference if I carry my bogpod & heads for shooting and optics at 47oz total or my 11oz rapid pivot bipod. I'm still looking at carrying only 15x binoculars instead of binos & a spotter. I've actually found a good price on a Leica 15x56 bino with the rangefinder built in too, which would kill even more birds with one stone. I have got all my electronics using AA lithium batteries now also except the rangefinder. I'm also still picking up layers when I can on sale. I'm good on everything except wool base layers, still watching for them when I can. Thanks again for all the replys. [/QUOTE]
