First aid also has alan key from rings and mounts.
Earplugs are gone. There's a pair in first aid kit, thats about it.
I am in two minds about the GPS and UHF. On one hand, I like both of them, on the other, I could replace both with Garmin Rino - GPS and UHF in one. What I really should have done in the first place, but I will write that off to experience (anyone wants to by my Etrex - let me know ). Maybe it could be a present from me to me when I land a stag $500 though, seems excessive, maybe not, will reevaluate next winter.

Rifle, 10 rounds, caribee backpack (1.5 litres of water), leatherman, knife, 30m paracord, matches.
Missing from the photo but usually there GPS, food (bars, trail mix, tin of fruit).
4.5-30x scope on the Tikka so no need for binoculars.
Lacking in first aid stuff admittedly... Need to sort that out.
