I'm happy as larry shooting things with 80s out to 400+m at 2700-2800fps MV. Bear that in mind - is the extra 100fps worth fighting for ?

Thanks for the reply. I've never used a big external framed pack. Was interested in hearing how they feel/carry, that's why I was asking. When I started making packs I honestly never thought hunters...

I've used alot of 162eldms, 180eldm and 168lrab The benefit of the 180 is when shooting them out of a magnum at 3000fps plus that they still work well due to extra mass at short range The 168 lrab...
