Does anyone have any experience with a good MOLLE waterproof/resistant back pack. Look for a new pack to hunt with and would prefer something with these 2 characteristics. Price is not a big deal. Strong stiching is a must.

Waterproof MOLLE Backpack

Mystery ranch is not advertised as waterproof, But i have been out with my Longbow many occasions in the rain and the contents are always dry on the inside. They have some very strong stitching as well!
5.11 Tactical RUSH backpacks have a water-repellant coating on them and are pretty much fully covered in MOLLE. I have 2....a black one for every day, to and from work stuff and a flat dark earth one I pack all of my shooting stuff in for when I'm hunting paper in a field or woods. They are definitely tough. The black one I've had for a few years and used to switch my work stuff out for gun stuff and back and forth like that (hence why I bought a gun gear one) so its gotten tossed around a bunch and you can barely tell it's been used. As far as how water repellent though, I'm not sure. They've been sat in mud and damp ground and been out in the snow and mist and everything has stayed dry...I haven't dumped one in a creek or had one out in a full on rainstorm either though so I'm not sure. There are two water drainage grommets on the bottom, so if you think you're gonna be in some serious water, the water can come in through the bottom two holes....

+ 1,000 for Mystery Ranch, their stuff is bomb proof and water resistant
They have a local company in Bozeman MT that if you need additional molle to customize your new pack, you can design and they will send it to them to add.
At a cost of course.

Look at Kifaru as well. The treated Cordura they use is waterproof but the zippers and seams will leak just like every other pack will since they aren't seam taped. In a light rain my stuff stays dray in my Kifaru Express G2, if I'm out in heavy rain all day I just throw an Osprey rain fly on it which works great.
