    Daypack: Kuiu Venture divide 3000 vs Sitka Mountain 2700

    If I get the divide, I don't plan on keeping the tripod and spotter assembled. If I come up on some elk, I'd prefer to have the tripod ready for my rifle in case I need to make a quick shot. So I want to make sure there's room inside the pack for the spotter, and given others mentioned I should...

    Daypack: Kuiu Venture divide 3000 vs Sitka Mountain 2700

    @sodaksooner how much room is in the main compartment with your spotter in it? In the main compartment I'll be packing: Vortex viper 15-45 scope Down coat and pants Grundens Neptune rain coat and pants Hydration bladder Small first aid kit Maybe a glassing pad .... Probably more, but not sure...

    Daypack: Kuiu Venture divide 3000 vs Sitka Mountain 2700

    I talked to the guide, and it sounds like my pack will be strapped to the horse while riding. But then while hiking of course I'll have it on me. He recommended the eberlestock team elk, or stone glacier which are on par with the size I'm looking for, just not as big of a fan of those designs...

    Sold Vortex Viper 15-45x65 Straight

    Can I ask why you want angled? I bought this exact scope in straight and really love it. So easy to aim and aquire the sight picture.

    Daypack: Kuiu Venture divide 3000 vs Sitka Mountain 2700

    The Kuiu divide 2000 looks better than the 3000 but I'm not sure the 2k will have enough room for everything I need in the pack (I don't like to pack light). I'm leaning towards the Sitka if I can get over how loud it is. Otherwise it may be time to search for a used Kuiu 2300.

    Daypack: Kuiu Venture divide 3000 vs Sitka Mountain 2700

    I wish they still made the 2300. It's probably about perfect. The divide pocket on the new series seems like it'll make digging though the pack annoying. We'll be riding out of camp but won't be on horses all day, we'll often be hiking so I don't want to risk leaving something on the horse I...

    Daypack: Kuiu Venture divide 3000 vs Sitka Mountain 2700

    I'm heading on my first elk hunt and need a larger daypack. I'll have horses to pack out so I don't need a meat hauler. I will have a tripod and spotting scope along with rain gear, down outer layers, and other supporting gear. I really like the Kifaru Shape Charge but think it's just a...

    New FHF FOB bino harness/my thoughts

    I was pretty set on the FOB but you brought up some pretty good points I had not though about. Question about your marsupial, how much can you fit in the front pocket? I'm trying to find a harness that can fit my hunting knife (Benchmade bone collector folder), without me having to add on a...

    Scope Choice for 7PRC Elk gun?

    You can get an illuminated reticle on them. It's $500 more. A bit of a big jump but they have those models out there at least.

    So whats this membership thing

    I wish it wasn't $50 as I feel that's a little high. But I'm sure the costs of keeping the site up and running are pretty high...so perhaps it's justified.

    Looking for a New 7mm to Shoot

    I'm jumping on the 7PRC bandwagon. The one challenge I'm having at the moment is that the round is so new that there's no quality brass yet and not much load data. I'm still waiting on my stock to get built so I at least will have a little time to wait for these things before I start load...

    Scope Choice for 7PRC Elk gun?

    Considered the Leupold Mark5 at all? That one is tempting me.
