Ok, I've been looking way to long...

Mystery Ranch, Nice 6500,  WolfPak, Tactiplane

Eberlestock M4 operator, Destroyer, V69, V90

These are what I'm looking at.
I like the removable pack and frame of the MR.
and the storage, if I use it or not. At least I'll have it. packing out meat, capes. ect..
Yes it'll be a hunter / BOB. pack.
I have a couple of 3 day packs..

thoughts ?

Your in AK and you want a pack, he has the best, bar none.



I have used one and he will fit it to you, and provide you with what you need, not what you think you want.



I have carried hundreds of pounds of meat in one of those, they are what you are looking for

Maybe not enough replies since not really a question in the thread?  

I assume you mean "which of the above packs would be best for packing out meat?"  If not, well, a 3-day bag should be fine for most short tem hunting trips, right?

For a hunting pack I would recommend the Eberlestock Dragonfly, I've packed in and out with it and it works better than any hunting pack I've used before. I guess you could use it for a BOB, but I'm not on board with that concept so others will have to give their opinions.

Long range? I can live comfortably out in the wild out of a large Alice for about 10 days.

So, we are talking time not distance...?

I was viewing a BOB as a tool for getting out of an area of danger, so I was thinking distance...

yea I was looking for something to Carry 70lbs. fit good.
I'm 6'4" and need a good fit, comfortable waist band.
want to carry a rifle.
Wiggy bag and Core bag for the Alaska Environment.

Pack would be used for packing out Moose, removable bag from MR is appealing.

Multipurpose.... do all bag. I have a couple of 2000ci bags for overnighters, 3 day pack

You need to go to REI or another store and have them measure your torso. Especially if you are a big guy. Packs are made to fit the average size male, which is 5'9" or 5'10".

Best advice of the thread. Packs are a very personal item, like shoes, that you should try in person and fit to a specific make/model/size as opposed to dropping $X00 sight unseen based on internet reviews.
