    Durston X-Mid Tents

    Just bought a dcf tarp from a bike camper who is going from a hyperlite tarp to the xmid. I have tge xmid to try for this season. Somehow I managed to avoid duty and taxes on the tent and the poles, which arrived last week. VERY LUCKY. Sent from my SM-S901W using Tapatalk

    Tipis (no stove) and sheep hunts (the good, the bad and everything in between)

    Ended up with the xmid 2p solid. I almost went with the 2p pro but i didn't want to worry about how i packed and stored that dyneema fabric. I can use the 2p solid without a liner if I wanted too. Will camp with the xmid a couple times before sheep hunt so we'll see how it goes. Sent from my...

    Tipis (no stove) and sheep hunts (the good, the bad and everything in between)

    I am a big fan of my cimarron. For two guys during elk season, it is awesome. I do bring a very light tent footprint. I bought an xmid 2p solid for this year's sheep hunt and the cimarron is a castle in comparison. With the xmid it's light, lower height for wind and has a fly. I'd argue...

    Scope Ideas? ... tikka 308 | 150gr Trophy Copper | For thick timber elk to stone sheep

    So I currently have a vx2 4-12x40 on my tikka. I am a big fan of the 150gr trophy copper in my 308 and I've taken elk and goat with it. I'm going to stick with that ammo So I was thinking about a new scope that I can dial for distance (ex. leupold CDS). I have killed a couple elk at 10yds...

    I'm waiting for the new 663 to show up. Would be realllly nice if the 883 eyepiece fit that 663 body.

    Durston X-Mid Tents

    I went down this rabbit hole and just bought the solid tomorrow. There are a few additions that make the 2p a little more burly which I liked. Durston is going to be selling the liners individually next yr. So I've bought the solid and if it's too warm during my Aug sheep hunt I'll grab the...

    Durston X-Mid Tents

    I just purchased the 2p solid this morning. I like the extra reinforcements you get to make it a little more burly. If too stuffy I'll grab the mesh liner but I wanted to make sure I had the solid fly. I'll report back once I have it. Sent from my SM-S901W using Tapatalk

    bumping this up for more opinions. curious to hear some experiences from August and early sept hunts when temps are warmer. Have to believe condensation issues aren't as bad when temp differentials between inside and outside temps are smaller. I have my eye on the xmid pro 2 and the xmid...
