Thread: Best bit of kit you brought this year ?

Can you trim them to fit as the sizing seems to be quite a range, ones I looked at were 4-7 that's a big difference. Or do you buy them by single size? I only had a quick look on Trademe.

You could trim them a bit but I'm not sure about the red squishy area. I got the 8-10 size and they are very tight to get in my size 10 boots but I'm going to see how they go with a few short dog walks.

They're all one size I think as there's nothing on the box they come in. I'm not sure what the 4-7 means but I'm a 9.5uk/44 in Lowas (GTX/wide) and they fit perfect without any trimming but in Gumboots I go a 9 in Skellerups and they needed a bit of trimming around the front

Durston X-Mid 2 p tent. Fantastic light tent with heaps of room. Haven’t tested in heavy wind or rain yet, but sure will be fine. Super light and heaps of room.love it.

Do a writeup when you get a bit more time with it. I have a blemish Tarptent Stratospher Li I quite like but the Durston looks a treat

Best thing I brought was a 223 and putting a bunch more rounds through it than normal.

Bought an EXO K4 pack. Great fit and no more aching shoulders. Yet to really load it up but I’m confident it’s the business. Also got some Swaro EL TA RF binos. Great glass

My sister bought over for me a blaze lid and a liner. I might grab a 5000 bag one day too.

It's been a good year for me Sako carbon light.223, Durston X-Mid 2 Solid and a Stone glacier pack all are very impressive.

Initial Ascent pack. Great load carrier and versatile.
100 62 grn Maker TRex - the best value monos.
Sytong XS06-50. Extraordinary thermal spotter.

Actually 3 purchases but it creates a really good system for glassing, recording shots and shooting from in prone.

Looks like a great set up. Where did you get the bino clamp and magnetic (phone?) adapter from @SPEARONZ ?

About $50 from Amazon. It doesn't have a lot of adjustment so double check it will fit your bino eye cups before buying. Sunwayfoto ba-43. Probably on Ali express as well.

If that doesn’t work this spotting scope one works well too, just more bulky.

Does the bino adaptor also fit the delta spotting scope?
