Check Current Price for Mystery Ranch Metcalf on GunsAmerica<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Mystery Ranch Metcalf 75 has been a staple in the hunting community for years, and for good reason, its durability, comfort, and load-bearing capacity have earned it a solid reputation. For 2024- Mystery Ranch has introduced a few key updates, including a new tapered frame, lighter materials, and a more customizable design. These changes aim to make the Metcalf more versatile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6899-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Got the Chilkook stuffed in my pack along with a 3 person tent, sleeping pad, and 5 days worth of food\/supplies\/hunting equipment and hiking out into the backcountry\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To put the Metcalf to the test, I took it on a week-long elk hunting trip in Colorado and a separate backpacking trip. For the elk hunt, I packed enough food, camping gear, and hunting equipment for five days, including a three-person tent. Despite all this gear, the Metcalf fit everything comfortably, with room to spare. The 75 liter volume suited the extended hunt, yet the pack also worked great for day hikes when I lightened the load to just water, snacks, and a few survival essentials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-ultra-light-mt-frame-comfort-and-adjustability\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ultra Light MT Frame: Comfort and Adjustability<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the standout features of the Metcalf is its Ultra Light MT Frame. Designed to carry heavy loads while remaining breathable and comfortable, the frame system allows for plenty of adjustability. The frame is wider at the top and tapers down at the bottom, which enhances stability and load distribution, particularly when navigating rugged terrain. While I didn\u2019t get to haul out any meat this year, the meat shelf proved to be a versatile feature. It allows quarters or other gear to be loaded onto the system without the hassle of unpacking and reorganizing the entire pack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6962-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Mystery Ranch Metcalf Ultra Light MT Frame\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Mystery Ranch Metcalf Ultra Light MT Frame<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pack itself is lightweight, and even fully loaded with hunting gear, it never felt too cumbersome. The padding on the back and hips is thicker than many other <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/eberlestock-team-elk-v2-backcountry-hunting-pack-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"mystery-ranch-metcalf-75-backcountry-hunting-pack-review\" title=\"Mystery Ranch Metcalf 75 Review: Elk Hunt Tested\">hunting packs<\/a>, providing excellent support, especially when carrying weight for long hours. The additional lower back padding was a nice touch, and the hip belts cinch down tightly, transferring the weight from your shoulders to your hips, crucial for comfort during long hikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6945-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Thick padding for the hip belt, back pad, and shoulder straps\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Thick padding for the hip belt, back pad, and shoulder straps<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the hip belts don\u2019t come with pockets, they do feature sewn attachment points, allowing you to attach pouches or gear as needed. The shoulder straps are fully adjustable, ensuring that you can find the perfect fit, whether you\u2019re hauling a heavy load or going light on a day hike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6963-edited.jpg\" alt=\"Hip belt with sewn loop attachment spots\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Hip belt with sewn loop attachment spots<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-the-main-compartment-a-big-stuff-sack-with-versatility\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Main Compartment: A Big Stuff Sack with Versatility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 75-liter main compartment of the Metcalf is one large, open stuff sack with a side zipper for easier access. It has a few hanging points at the top for organizing smaller items, and the HydraPack bladder insert is a nice feature for those long treks. The top utilizes rolling compression straps which roll up and then buckle together. This does a great job at keeping moisture out and the contents dry. However, it also features a side zipper for quick access to the main compartment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6952-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"The main part of the Metcalf 75 is a 75-liter main compartment with a rolling compression buckle lid system\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The main part of the Metcalf 75 is a 75-liter main compartment with a rolling compression buckle lid system<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6956-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Insert for securely holding a water bladder and running the hose through the back of the pack\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Insert for securely holding a water bladder and running the hose through the back of the pack<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Multiple compression straps on the outside of the pack help to secure all your items, ensuring nothing shifts around during your hike. These straps also come in handy when packing out meat, especially when hauling heavier or awkward loads like elk quarters. There are plenty of options for securing your gear, and even though there are many straps, they\u2019re organized in a way that\u2019s intuitive and efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6947-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Plenty of straps for securing your gear, or attaching extra equipment\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Plenty of straps for securing your gear, or attaching extra equipment<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-the-lid-and-side-pockets-organization-at-its-best\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Lid and Side Pockets: Organization<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The detachable lid is one of the Metcalf\u2019s most used features. It has two large, zippered pockets that are perfect for storing smaller items. Such as snacks, gloves, or emergency supplies that you need access to quickly. The lid is also a great way to keep your gear dry with its roll-top closure. This is a departure from the usual shroud closure seen on older models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6964-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The Metcalf top lid is removable, but it has two easily accessed compartments\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Metcalf top lid is removable, but it has two easily accessed compartments<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The side pockets are roomy enough to hold water bottles, spotting scopes, or tripods, and they\u2019re easily accessed when you need them. These pockets are a big advantage when you\u2019re moving quickly and don\u2019t want to waste time digging through the main compartment. They also feature elastic drawstrings, ensuring that your gear stays secure even when you\u2019re moving fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6958-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The side straps and bottle pouch are large enough to securely hold a tripod and spotting scope\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The side straps and bottle pouch are large enough to securely hold a tripod and spotting scope<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-metcalf-75-performance-in-the-field\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Metcalf 75 Performance in the Field<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During my trip, the Metcalf was up to the task. With over 50 pounds of gear on my back, including a three-person tent, food, and hunting equipment, the pack performed great on both long backpacking days and shorter day hikes. The adjustable load lifters provided by the new ladder system allowed me to fine-tune the fit. This ensured comfort throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6955-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Fully loaded pack, ready for 5 days living out in the woods\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Fully loaded pack, ready for 5 days living out in the woods<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, I did notice a bit of a squeak from the frame during my hikes. This became especially noticeable when I was trying to be stealthy while stalking elk. While it wasn\u2019t a big deal, I did question if elk could hear it once I was close to them. This was more of a personal annoyance than a performance flaw, but something to know for those who think they could move without making a sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6950-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"I was able to fit my 3 person ultralight tent in the Metcalf 75 with all of my other gear\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">I was able to fit my 3 person ultralight tent in the Metcalf 75 with all of my other gear<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-durability-and-rain-protection\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Durability and Rain Protection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the first day of my hunt, I encountered an issue when one of the buckles on the shoulder strap broke. The pack was fully loaded, and when I set it down, the weight put too much strain on the buckle, causing it to snap. Mystery Ranch does offer replacement buckles. However, that doesn\u2019t help much when you\u2019re on a hunt in the middle of the mountains. While this was disappointing, I was able to remedy the situation by tying the strap to the frame, and I didn\u2019t experience any further issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6944-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The buckle that broke attached to the ladder system\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The buckle that broke attached to the ladder system<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In terms of weather protection, the Pack Fly, which is sold separately, provides an extra layer of defense against rain. Weighing just 4 oz, it uses a strap between the frame and back pad to secure it over the pack. While the Metcalf\u2019s materials are water-resistant, this rainfly is a nice extra for those caught in downpours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_6954-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"Mystery Ranch Pack Fly secured to the Metcalf 75\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Mystery Ranch Pack Fly secured to the Metcalf 75<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-metcalf-75-review-conclusion\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Metcalf 75 Review Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Mystery Ranch Metcalf 75 is a solid all-around hunting pack. Whether you\u2019re packing in for a weeklong hunt or just heading out for a day of scouting, the Metcalf provides the space, comfort, and durability to handle it all. The new tapered frame and customizable features make it even more versatile for hunters who need a reliable and adjustable pack. While the squeaking frame and buckle issue were minor annoyances, they didn\u2019t take away from the overall performance of the pack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For an MSRP of $549, the Metcalf is priced higher than many other hunting packs, and it suits hunters who want comfort and load carrying ability for extended trips.
