What Piece of Kit are you most Excited to Test This Year?

[archie_james_c]

I know this isn't exactly H&S Arms Stuff...but the Gear and Accessories Forum is full of guys talking about Oakley Tactical Gloves and the Hunting! Forum gets very little traffic...besides...we all know H&S Arms is where it's at .

So what new piece of gear are you most excited to try out this season? For all you Western guys I'm sure most of you guys have tried your stuff this Elk season *jealousy*.

For me its my Sitka Celcius Bibs I got on sale for 99$, and polar tech power dry mid layers .

Deer better get ready for some long distance action!

I'm just looking forward to using the new guns. The Marlin 336 for deer and the Winchester 1500 XTR on grouse. Oh and I got a new pair of hunting boots from Cabelas that are super warm and comfortable.

New Avery eliminator SUB layout blind for goose hunting. Actually had it out already and I'm quite happy with it.

Also new Kick-eze recoil pad on my slug gun. It's a lot softer than the factory pad, so I'm expecting I'll be happy with it as well.

You'll love the bino's popcan. I bought a set late last summer and it still puts a smile on my face when I bring them up for a look see.


I'm hoping to be able to drop the hammer on a big whitetail this fall with my new Rem 700 CDL stainless/fluted chambered in 270 wsm. It's topped with a Leupold 3.5-10 VXIII with Alumina scope caps in Talley light weights. I replaced the walnut stock with a laminate mountain rifle stock.
