    How much better is K4 than Kuiu?

    I packed an older Kuiu pack one season and it was fine, nothing special other than lightweight for me. I didn't pack anything besides camp out that year. I'm a big Kuiu fan since they were producing stuff in Canada, so wanted to like their packs, but I got a K3 2 seasons ago and it was night...

    7mm PRC Build with a 20" Barrel - Elk Rifle for 2024 - Advice?

    Nothing wrong with that. I like shiny too, but the older mountain rifles flat out get it done. I got the privilege to hunt with a suppressor this year for the first time and it was a wow factor. Shorter barrel, probably not as great ballistics and maybe a more awkward weight (can it was...

    Incorporating step ups

    I do them. I had a buddy build a box for me last year and I did them a bunch early this year in preparation for a mountain hunt in NZ in June. I think they helped. On the mountain I was feeling hip flexors burning going up, but I was steady and didn't lack the endurance the mountain required...

    Swarovski NL Pure 10X vs 12X

    Yeah, I felt like I could, if I wasn't out of breath. The ergos of the NLs are something else. Like, I may be spoiled for life they feel so comfortable. I wasn't uncomfortable with my last set which were 10s from Meopta, but the ergonomics are night and day. Even compared to the EL Range...

    Sold EXO K3 4800 Ranger Green & K3 1800

    That's my setup there. I love the 1800 for day hikes and hunts and 4800 is ideal for my 5 day stabs. Good luck with the sale. Guessing you probably went with K4. :)

    Swarovski NL Pure 10X vs 12X

    I'm not sure I can add much to the discussion, but I got 12s this spring. I've had them out a few times in the field hunting, but it was a huge upgrade for me. Brightness, something I was concerned about due to the exit pupil being smaller in 12x42 was a non-issue. Handholding wasn't really...

    Kuiu durability

    I have OG Attack pants and Guide jacket made in Canada. They have been everywhere from Florida to Hawaii, Wyoming and all over California and now NZ. They are still going strong, but showing some wear, but no failures. Same for the 145, 185 and 210 merinos. I had their first gen bino harness...

    Best way to set up the Kifaru gun bearer?

    I've struggled with the GB for a lot of seasons with much of what was said above and finally went for the EXO solution. It's a bit different, but I like it. I set a hunter partner's up on his side and I put mine on the back of the pack. I really like it out of the way on the back. Still...

    NL Pure 10's

    I can! I do have the FHR and that does make a difference. Most of the time, handholding them is fine. I just got back from a mountain hunt in NZ and when getting to a glassing vantage huffing and puffing from exertion, it was tough. Taking a seat and bracing elbows made it tons better. It...
