For the money it is hard to beat a Mossy Oak Super Elite III made by Russell Outdoors. For about twice the money you can get an Ole Tom I-beam and it is a great vest as well. The Tat'r vests by Cabelas are good. I would recommend getting your hands on them if possible to see what grabs you. There are at least three recent similar threads here on OG with a lot of good info on current vests if you want to search and read them.

Macks Prarie Wing has SEIII for $40.  That price is hard to beat.

As a buyer of many vests, I agree with this, the SE III is a very good vest.  I just ordered the new SE III Treklite in MO Bottlomland, hope I like it as much as my other SE vests!

Hey, new to the forum. The SEIII is by far the best vest on the market. The seat cushion is thick and it has tons of pockets. Great  purchase for me.

Cabelas Tactical Tat'r with kickstand or the Ol Tom are the ones I like

There is no absolute best, it comes down to preference. 

The ones mentioned above are good and add the Russell Limbhanger to the list for consideration.

Depends on your preference and how much money you want to spend.
A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

It really is a matter of choice and personal preference. I have the Tactical Tater 3 and I really like it, good cushion plenty of pockets, and it does let your back get some air but I carry lots of stuff. Best advice is above go to a store that stocks them and try them on it is the best way to make sure "you" get what you want.
