I bred and raised my own packer.
Easier that way. like TinyCOCK, I’m usually solo and enjoy the pack out.
The real question is, who packs in a hot little cook?
Now we're getting somewhere, to the important stuff. I've packed out a few solo myself and like you and Tiny, I enjoy that part of it. Mainly because it means I got what I came for, but also for the physicality of it.
The real reason for the OP was to mention something that really matters, other than caliber and premium bullets. Along those lines I was gonna do a thread on the minimum number of miles on your boots before they're broken in for an elk hunt, but that would've gotten zero replies......
