Think I ended up with your pack
. What the other two have said is fairly spot on. Rifle scabbard is great, but I find it's compact mode "just" to small (I usually always hunt ready to stay out a night just in case) and its expanded mode just too big and bulky. It is a heavy pack...it is hard to pack it light. However, it really really shines with how it handles weight. I packed my full overnight set-up (probably 50-60lbs) 16 miles and 2500 ft elevation gain in s day, and aside from my legs it sat perfectly. Later packed a deer out, two trips, 1 mile 1 way (so 4 miles)and again...aside from my legs once the pack was settled it settled nice and balanced well. If your near the three hills area I'd be happy to let you check it out, or I believe they carry them at cabelas.
