    Stone Glacier is a very good pack, EXO Mountain Gear for me was even a little more comfortable than the SG, but funny enough for me the old Mystery Ranch Nice frame is by far the best of the bunch for comfortability, I have two of the new Mystery Ranch Guide Light frames and they are good also but definitely for me the Nice frame is the best.

    In saying that its like boots what works for me may not work for you, if at all possible try some packs on before forking out a $1000 bucks on something that may not fit right.

    I truly hope you appreciate the irony of that post considering you have two custom recurves listed in your signature line. Don’t you know you can make your own bow from like $11 of different diameter black plastic pipe?!?!?! Why would anyone have a buffalo horn inlay on a BOW when you can just put a wrap of duct tape on there for decoration! They both do exactly the same thing, fling arrows!

    Real men use a Bullpac. I've always thought that mystery ranch and sitka packs are for the same guys who wear blue camo outfits to the range.
    When in doubt, just pin it.

    You can keep the aliexpress pack, 30mins into a 10 day hike you will regret saving $450 bucks. I like my mystery ranch!!

    Love my Mystery Ranch Marshall...Great pack...Bought at Great North Precision and their customer service is top notch. No need to ever deal with anyone stateside if you go through them.

    I like my MR Pintler. Bought it in Cranbrook last season when my Kuiu gave out on me for a second time. Have since bought some MR accessories from Great North Precision in Kelowna... nary a problem.

    Did you get all of your money back including shipping and duty? I wonder how your experience would have been if you purchased it from a Canadian dealer or directly through rampart?

    Sorry other about your problems with CS but I have to say after five years of use I love my Metcalf and 6500. Here's a look at MR and a few other packs and how they compare. Buy once cry once never more true.
