MAIN Graphite 20

Looking for a well-sized dry bag to accompany you on a spring cast and blast? Check out the Graphite 20 dry bag/backpack hybrid, from Alps Mountaineering. 

Most dry bags, although functional, can be awkward to carry, and are certainly are not designed for hiking. The Graphite 20, however, presents dry-bag functionality in an easy-to-carry backpack configuration. This diversity allows the Graphite 20 to serve as a conventional dry bag for vehicle camping, canoeing, and kayaking adventures, or as a minimalist backpack for short-duration hiking trips.

Made of durable and waterproof 300D polyester ripstop, the pack features a roll-top closure and compression straps to secure contents and prevent water intrusion. A padded back panel and adjustable shoulder straps address the comfort factor, while a full-length daisy chain provides exterior attachment points.

Offered in gray with black accents, the Graphite 20 has a 20L capacity, weighs one pound, eight ounces., and measures 5x22x24 inches (18-inches rolled).

Behind the Bullet: The .22 Long

If we could rewind the clock to 1871, before the .45-70 Government and .45 Colt existed, and when cartridges themselves were just establishing a foothold in the shooting world, you’d find a pair of .22-caliber rimfire designs: the .22 Short and the .22 Long. Aptly named, these cartridges would survive well into the 20th century, ultimately being conquered by the .22 Long Rifle cartridge. But in certain situations, the .22 Long cartridge still makes good sense, and actually has a few specialized applications.
