    sweaty feet and gortex go together like peas and carrots in my experience.

    What wouldnt you shoot in NA with a .308 inside 400yds?

    270win with a 150 cup and core or 130gr mono would be right there with the 308 / 180g in my mind. both very capable and sometimes underrated

    Another quilt to compliment a 0*

    243 Win bullets

    if your hunting deer under 350 yards with a 243, just pick a box of bullets off the shelf, check to make sure its not a super light varmint or target bullet and go shoot a deer. that said, ive watched 55gr vmax absolutely destroy a mule deer at 250yds or so. dont overthink it, just pick...

    Kuiu Kutana

    the pants look very interesting. would the FL Guide Lite pant be a direct comparison? its also a light weight 100% nylon

    Same arrows - different bow

    I would think a 400 spine arrow would get you close. especially with your shorter draw and intended lighter point weight. just make sure your finished arrow weight is heavy enough it does not damage the bow. 8gr per pound of bow weight would be a good start.

    Rain jacket replacing mid layer

    archery season? baselayer, LPP and lightweight rain jacket would be my go-to if you need a rain jacket. no need for a heavy duty rain coat.

    Slow velocities with H4831 (.270 Win)

    I maxed out at 2820 in a tikka 270 using h4831sc and 150gr partitions. ablr and eld-x are much longer and would intrude on case capacity more than a partition. are you hitting pressure before running out of case capacity? if so, try a faster burn powder like r16, Hybrid100V or a 4350

    Switching away from 210 Berger to a 180 Swift Scirocco

    In my limited experience loading these, they built pressure way earlier than an equal weight accubond. they ended up shooting ok, just a word of caution.
