Which Tactical Vest or Setup for a Run & Gun Shoot

[auprospector]

I need some help in selecting a H-harness or tactical vest for a 'High Risk Operator' (HRO) class that I'm taking this summer.

We'll be carrying our gear (ammo, water, weapon, food/etc.) for 8 - 10 hours/per day, and getting into and out of supported firing positions after moving, supressive fire, etc.

I have a Blackhawk load bearing H-harness which does well for carrying heavy loads, however, b/c of the padded shoulder pads, these become problemic when firing my weapon as the butt wants to slide of to one side or another.

Any suggestion of another brand that would work well or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Take a good look at Red Tac Gear's Apollo ultra light.
Very well thought out.

If need be I can wear a Camelback pack with this rig all day long.

Eagle tactical chest rigs and vests get my vote for a 3 gun rig. When I was researching and buying equipment last year for two-gun and three-gun competition nothing else came close for durability, comfort, and cost. Triad Tactical carries a lot of Eagle stuff and is a sponsor here, too. Check out SKD for anything Triad doesn't have.
