Yeah, I built a long range .30-.30 for my wetside hunts just for those kind of shots.
Actually, I remember the picture of that buck, I think. Nice one.
I used to wear a timber cruisers vest but it's kind of heavier cotton and would never dry out. When it's not going to be wet out it's nice because it has a big pocket in the back. Of course mine had blue and red paint all over it from marking trees...
