Been using a Pintler for the past couple years. Hauled an elk and deer so far. I find it as comfortable as it gets when hauling 60-80 lbs in a pack. I have a pop-up 28 and the smaller Scapegoat (28?) and still carried the Pintler in deer season this year. I find the Pintler a very good all around pack. My Metcalf bag has only seen use a few times in the past couple years.....
