FishKilla, I agree with ya. A 6500 3lb pack on the same frame would be more ideal. Much rather have one larger pack than a smaller one with a bunch of stuff hanging off of it. I like to think I have my gear figured out pretty well but I still struggle to find places to put my gear when I get an animal down. Granted I don't strap anything to the outside of my pack as I like for everything to be contained inside.
Maybe in a few years there will be an option for such a pack from Kifaru.
But for a short hunt pack or simply a lightweight summer packrafting pack with lots of space if not hunting then the would be a great option. I just don't like stuff hanging on the outside of my pack due to my pack being too small. Regardless I will likely buy the 5200 to try it out anyways.
