Yeah you'd be crazy two pay that money for a coat.
Mine is the older model it was 4 hundy new from memory.
Really rate it in the crap.
Being a farmer out in all sorts of shit weather I've tryed a lot of coats
No one knows coats like a cockie!!!

I don't want to know how it preforms while sitting on my ass on a quad bike, I want to know whats its like pushing through scrub!!!
No, I'm kidding, thanks for the feed back, I will try to find a cheaper price on them and then see...
I have Hunters Element XTR and Rate it, has performed well for me in some real shit weather. I have full length zip but can get a pull over type as well.
Have not used for a heap of scrub bashing, held up very well so far to the abuse I have put it through though.
Cheers

I have one too and love it but dont know how it would go pushing through rough stuff

I have the h&f shearwater which has certainly kept me dry. Coped ok with the rough stuff, tho I was surprised how heavy it became in the rain. But, it worked, and I was happy. They're cheaper now and I think their new fabric might be lighter in weight.
Check out the Arc'Teryx Theta AR or SVX. Expensive (especially the SVX) but looks like a really solid option. I am going to get an AR once I scrap together the funds and hopefully find one on sale somewhere...
If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more
For hunting I would say a quality poncho, keeps you dry, your pack dry and your rifle out of the elements...can use it to build a fly or groundsheet.
One of those clear plastic toss away one's are good to have in your daybag for when caught out in the weather...you may look a dork...but a dry dork.
Which is worse, ignorance or apathy...I don't know and don't care.
Hmm might need a poncho a day for 10 days in fiordland...
