So-called "hard core" hunting packs? Then why did literal junk -- like Kifaru and Mystery and Paradox -- become mentioned? Those are literal junk product that are only supported by marketing [therefore popularity] hype, when it comes to true hard-core back country wilderness adventure/expedition hunting. Laughable column at best, in the real world of extreme adventure hunting.

Would the military regard any of these packs for spec ops problems in mountainous regions at the last 300 meters of diplomacy? Are they good enough for diversified loadings?
Uhhh yeah, you could say that. A Mystery Ranch 3-day is current SOCOM issue. Various permutations of the Lowe brother's original dual-stay internal packs (The Lowe Expedition) have been issued to SF units for 30yrs. Some of them sucked balls because they were made by low-bid idiots. The real thing has always worked as advertised. The Kifaru is the current state-of-the-art version of that original design. The Dana Shortbed frame is load-hauling perfection, something like that would never work for SF units due to the need to be able to parachute with it. That is why the Lowe/Kifaru dual stay type pack is preffered if something other than a 3-day or the DeSade Special, otherwise known as an ALICE pack, is needed.

A HB0002 model Nexpack services tactical ability and certainly it does would service almost any "casual" hunting-related application, too. I wouldn't try to place a hind quarter of an Alaska/Yukon bull moose inside of one, though. But for everything else in North America, the HB model is great, especially for day use. On an extended backpacking (multi-night) excursion, I'll always opt for an external frame pack, but that's me. I like the dependability and the ability or option to "compromise under stressful or problematic situations" when using an external frame pack.

So mav, what makes you qualified to comment on a pack you never used?

I copied and pasted "HB0002 Nexpack" and got your silly-ass post. Do you just come here and make up stupid schidt to amuse yourself?

So, Mr. "Take A Knee" (aka - Knee Hole):
You weren't able to find an HB002 tactical model in either black or digital grey"? Maybe your so-called "google-fu" [as like D.L.'s] is somehow flawed?

To be more specific, what external frame pack do you use if you're not using a Barneys?
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.
