Thread: Rifle scabbards

I too had a j4. Agree with John. Changed to a 1.1 pack. Exped lightening. Sure its possible not as tough, but the gains from saved 2.5kg is gold. Now my overnight setup complete is under 9kg on me back. If you shoot a lot more deer than me regularly then you may benefit from j34. I hunt more than i carry meat ao when i do shoot something i have to move the meat differently. Boned out in bags. In pack or over shoulder.
For me the postion of the rifle against the back in its pouch meant that the load in the j34 was further away from my back, it just felt weird..... more movement and change of balance for me. This was with two Tahr in the back, only young animals but was enoughweight and too far from my centre of balance. Didnt feel right.
