Eberlestock Gunrunner Pack
When I go deer hunting, I tend to hunt on small pieces of land or in a blind. There’s not a lot of hiking involved and not a lot of equipment to carry around. But when I went elk hunting this year, that changed. Not only did I need to carry my normal gear, but I also needed to take my rain gear, food and water. Obviously, I needed to buy a good camo backpack. I also realized that my arms tend to get tired holding a rifle for a long time, so I wanted a backpack that I could carry it in.
In my search I found the Eberlestock Gunrunner Pack at Cabela’s. At a reasonable price of just under $150, the Gunrunner Pack is light and surprisingly comfortable. It has a padded stowable waistbelt to stabilize the load and keep the weight off your shoulders. With 1,800-cu. inches capacity there is plenty of room for the day’s essentials. I easily packed it with my rain gear and hats, binoculars, range finder, knives, food, water and all the other little hunting gadgets I carry. Several vertical and horizontal compression straps also let you grapple things to the pack.
This was a GREAT pack and I was totally comfortable wearing it all day. It was really wonderful to have my hands totally free so that I could glass the hillsides for elk. It’s worth every penny and I recommend this pack 100%!
Happy Hunting!
