I run a 18” 6.5SST- similar to a 6.5PRC but slightly shorter to suit a short action better. The key is to hand load for short barrels. 147gr ELDM @ 2800fps ...

20” 7mm rem mag. Seen/loaded a good few now. Multiple mates with them. Work mint. 18” too short for a rem mag.

I reckon the states has the advantage of 10 million hunters buying new packs every year so that can keep developing and MARKETING the latest and greatest. 1. Kifaru 2. Exo 3. Mystery Ranch 4....

Weight is comparable with everything else. Guess at the end of the day if the harness and hip belt system is comfy and carries weight well and the bag is half pie decent. Happy days.

I'm using a Kifaru Gnargali, brought secondhand but was worth the outlay. Was the basic design I wanted with top loading as I have trust issues with zip blowing out. Great thing about Kifaru is that...
