Hey,

I've been using a pantac RRV with a RRV hydration carrier attached. With all the adjustment straps done up as far as they can go the rig is still loose and bounces around too much for my liking. It's all pretty bulky and heavy when fully loaded up (9 mags, coleman propane tank, 2 pistol mags, bb's, water, radio..) I've been thinking of getting a smaller rig and cutting down my my mags to 6-8 (gbbr m4 mags).

I was wondering what is a good rig to start from? I'd ideally prefer something with a smaller profile that more evenly distributes the overall load, perhaps placing the weight from the mag pouches up higher on the body. I do like the ability to use a hydration carrier especially for longer games and need to carry a small tank of propane which is the bulkiest piece to carry. I've seen a few rigs I liked that had little clutter on the sides giving the shooter a smaller profile.

Here's an example of something I was sort of picturing?

Any input or suggestions would be great as I will continue research and look around.

Thanks
