Kilted hunting
I am considering getting one of those 22oz WPG kilts for hunting. I recently went out with my dad for me to scout around a little and him to get a deer (he didn't but that isn't the point). I wore a SWK standard black stewart, kilt hose, t-shirt, medium weight cotton shirt and a blaze orange wind breaker and I was comfortable. The walking probably helped a little, but with temperatures just under 50 the back of my calves could tell it was a little chilly out.
So, what are your experiances hunting (or even hiking, but you have to go through brush and something with thorns for it to count ) while kilted? What did you wear? If it was wool did you have any problems with it getting dirty and for a hunting kilt, would you care?
Oh ya, I just bought a 8mm mauser (romanian stamped brno vz40) with a Lyman peep sight. It isn't original so modifying it isn't sacralige and it still fulfills my requirement of it not being a plastic turd capable of hitting a target at several hundred yards. Plan on using it for deer and elk. Probably a little big for antelope and small for bear.
