Russell APXg2 L4 gale jacket

[slim jim]

Russell just added real tree max-1 camo to their apxg2 L4 gale jacket. How does everyone feel about this jacket? I wanted to get this because the price is right, at $169 it seems to be a good choice. I like to wear the max-1 camo for my high country early seasons. Any info on this jacket would be appreciated.

I have two of these, one in Kings Mountain Shadow and one in black. IMO they are well made, comfortable and a good value for the
dollar. I like the Kings Mountain Shadow for the Wyoming backcountry.

I have gale 4 and love it. Have had for 2 seasons and looking at getting second one in realtree ap. Great wind blocking however must layer in colder weather < 35. So far it has held up well for the price. UA has a new jacket similar to gale 4 called Rut wear if im not mistaken might be similar to look at. A little bit cheaper. 139 i Believe. bought the vest at sportsmans warehouse and cant wait to use in this year in backcounty.

+1 for me on the Russell APXg2 L4 gale jacket. Well made and a durable jacket and a good layer to the system.

I've got a brand new one I bought on clearance I'll make you (or anyone else) a sreamin deal on. It's black though and size medium. I have a camo one and love the jacket. Bought another in a weak moment and don't really need it.

I am looking at this jacket for wyoming elk hunting in late october mainly. I have the under armour 3.0 base layer and a sitka traverse mid layer. Would this jacket be enough to withstand late octobers weather with my layers? (-15F sometimes but mainly for 10F weather and windy).

WYrider, i have the gale l4 jacket and it works great. Ive worn my l4 in some pretty hard rain here in oregon before and stayed warm and dry. I can't say how well it will do in those temps because the lowest ive worn it in is in the mid 20's.

Midway USA has the gale series on sale for 100 bucks right now.
