The 77 is great but just a shade heavier the 80HD. The 66 is definitely a great scope, probably the ultimate mix of price, glass, and weight on the market, very under rated
I think that is a prudent move in a very remote new area.
I should have added more context on this hunt I'll be part of. It's in the Chugach in an area I've hunted in two other times. It's relatively close to civilisation, less than a day's walk out to the truck. We also have the luxury of a...
Thanks for the input.
There's a first aid kit in the other category. Yeah, I might drop a pair of undies. I usually take two but don't seem to ever wear the second pair.

I had a similar issue with the Kenai line, but a little bit of pilling is fine. Everything else is stellar. I love the Yukon rain gear and highly recommend them. Their thermals a fantastic also.
I've used Firstlite and Swazi, but Kuiu was better. It hurt turning my back on Swazi because I'm a...
