[QUOTE="sp6x6, post: 1064273, member: 21869"] I pack a custom 338 MN that is 8 3/4 dressed w/ leo 6-20x50 tmr.Really like set up but would like lower end,the 5x on my SS is suprizing better. I hunt the grizz country on way up mtns.I also have a 11# version that I packed 70 days this year because I had MT moose tag,not as steep country and lot gated roads, usually went in 2 miles because I didnt want pack moose that far and very hot early.Did do 9 miles one day.Im shopping for march for my packer.Like features. Im in the 50+ group and as mentioned the weight catches up with you Im also not large person so when packout comes it hurts more now.I put moose head on my back and drug qrt. to road.Then hiked out 2miles, then went back and got 1/4 and thought I could drag a 1/4 with me,which caused me to over do it ,back at dark.So took longer overall trying to bite off too much at once:D [/QUOTE]
