I am looking for a Hunting Suspender/Belt Combination for a Big Man (I am 5'10" and 300 lbs.). The belt needs to have accessories to include: Cartridge Case, Rangefinder Case, and other Miscellaneous carriers. I should also be able to attach my Knife Case to it. I don't think I would carry more than 20-30 lbs. Your ideas will be appreciated.
 
Look into loggers belts, they give you a good solid set of braces and a belt capable of supporting a woodsman’s axe and various other pieces of kit.
 
Filson double belt and big bend saddelry suspenders. Both tough as nails.
 
For a big guy carrying 20-30 lbs, a suspender/belt combo is actually more comfortable than a chest rig or backpack, because it keeps the weight off your spine and on your hips/shoulders. But you have to piece it together yourself. No company makes a “big and tall” off-the-shelf hunting belt system that doesn’t suck.
 
Email Tredoux leather.

That is why I suggested looking into the logging belts that would be a really good starting point and they are made for big men.

Perry suspenders combined with a heavy leather belt is the secret weapon used by secret service and other protective services guys for when you have to keep 20lbs of crap on your belt (gun, mags, radio, cuffs, baton, badge, spray, etc etc) and keep your trousers pulled up and looking “normal” in the process…

Super well made… I’ve still got black, brown, and tan Perry’s from back in the early 2000’s when I used to wear them daily… and affordable… lots of strength, but also very flat and comfortable to wear under a coat or jacket, etc… and low profile so you typically can’t see them under a coat..
 
I have been wearing Carhartt ( they have extra heavy duty clips ) that get a good solid bite on both leather and cloth) or a pair of carpenters suspenders with both pants and belt loop bracing

See you are from Denmark - see quite a few Danes where I stalk in Scotland - great hunters.
The Harkilia stuff works well in Africa - I have a bit for use here in UK.
I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
I have not posted any items for sale on this forum and will not every put anything for sale. My account was hacked and I've worked with the admin to get things shut down.
