Hunting backpack that works for carry-on

i've been looking for something similar. i'm honestly considering an osprey pack but haven't pulled the trigger although i probably should and get a memorial day sale

I took my MR Metcalf as a carryon for a backpacking trip. Delta didn’t give me any trouble with it. I’ve also taken a rod tube with me and thrown it behind the other bags in the overhead.

This is how I got a 3.5 inch tss load and a multitool through TSA without knowing it was there until unloading bag at destination.

My 34 year old Dana Design Bomb Pack or Big Sky. The Big Sky is easier to pack, the Bomb Pack is top-load only. I believe they were made in Bozeangelos before it was Bozeangelos. There were still real farmers and cowboys in town. See them like new on Ebay all the time. And cheap! Been all over Europe for weeks on end with both. Not tacticool though.

I am looking for this type bag right now. I dont fly often and my pack would be used mainly for hiking but i cant afford multiples at the moment. The kifaru minikeg seems to be the best option for capacity while still being carry-on compliant. If getting a larger bag on flights is as easy as they make it sound then i might just do that.

Also, if you fly outside the country be sure to triple check your bag for ammo. We almost had a guy arrested in guatemala for 3 22lr rounds in his backpack while on a mission trip a few years ago. That was a sketchy day
