I guess Yeti bought them out. That means they will triple the price, make them heavier, move manufacturing to China and slap the Yeti name on them. And the "influencers" will pee all over themselves trying to get them as sponsors!
Mystery Ranch no more?

I believe the majority of the hunting line, if not all are made in the phillipines/vietnam. I know most of the military line is made in Bozeman or at least they were when I was using them. I have been really wanting to get a new Metcalf 100 and maybe I will now. I have also been looking at Eberlestock (aluminum frame, but able to withstand quite a bit of weight apparently) and Stone Glacier. I usually end up going with the ones with the biggest discount and MR has been that way for a while for me. Anyone have any experience with Eberlestock or Stone Glacier?
I’m a Stone Glacier guy hands down. I have one frame and two interchangeable bags(bought one from a H’ter). Lightweight, streamlined, customizable, and can pack out a semi. They fit me really well. Had a buddy that bought one but didn’t fit his torso right. I would highly recommend SG but try them on if you can.

I've never handled one, but I have heard nothing but good reviews. They are a little on the pricy side but you get what you pay for also.
Top notch customer service and warranty too. One of my straps got cut during a pack out. They fixed it for free and had it back to me lightning fast.

Mystery Ranch has always done the same for me. I wonder what the customer service will be like now. When you order a Stone Glacier, it comes with the frame and the bag or do you have to order separate?
They come together.
