Re: 0range tactical vest
I have been looking for an orange tactical type vest for long range hunting as well. As cool as the Green and camo vests look, they don't comply with the hunting regs in Colorado.
My wishlist is:
1. Ideally it would have a clever design of pockets or some sort of modular system for a range finder, GPS, portable weather station, iPhone with ballistics software, spare clip, ammo, etc.
2. I usually hunt with a revolver and a cross draw holster would be nice like the one on the

3. I need a blaze orange version of the vest. It seems I must be living in the only State that requires a lot of orange! (ever try to find a good hunting back pack made in blaze orange as opposed to camo?)
4. Durable and lightweight, repels water.
Anyhow, my search continues. The closest thing that I have found that ticks some of the boxes is the Primos Gunhunters Vest -
