    Sorry bud, I only know what Chris has told me.
    But I shouldn't imagine a syndicate of private hunters shelling out tens of thousands of $ for a private hunting block would welcome strangers in ...... but I've been wrong before.

    Just a bog standard "Rab Siltarp 2"...... weighs about 480g or 540g with all the braid cord tie offs on it...... Check it out on their website. 2.4mx3.00m ( 8'x10" )
    And its endured some horrific downpours.

    Thanks for that
    The coating on my Forbes was showing quite a bit of wear so sanded it back and repainted in what looks a similar colour to your Kimber
    Still have another Forbes 7mm/08 that my son hunts with and I have a Kimber Hunter which has grown on me and is shooting well
