Here is my review (so far) of the Knight and Hale RNG 200 Turkey Vest.  I still have a couple more items to add before it is fully loaded but intially pleased with the setup.

Great review..So from what i can tell it doesn't have a water bottle pocket ?    I wonder if the 300 has a water bottle pocket.........

"Built-in 375 cubic inch backpack is bladder compatible." For the 300

Thanks. I think i'm going to get one.

Picked-up one this past weekend at BPS.  Removed and swapped out for the speed seat off my Tac Tat'r 2.  Added a water bottle holder on the left side MOLLE and utility bag on the right side MOLLE.  Looks like a vest Frankenstein would build but fits, wears and works great so far!  Wore it walking the dogs other day to get a feel for it and was quite pleased.  Of course, durability to be determined pending review come the end of May.

yeah durability test is what I am wondering as well.

Frankenstein's vest.  Added a monocular to the upper left strap for quick use.  Jazzed-up the MOLLE utility bag with some custom name patches.

Looking good!  May wear mine a lot this weekend as I scout, to work out any kinks.

Thanks John!  Good luck to you this Spring!

I had a hard time deciding between the 200 and 300, but ended up going with the 300. The only reason was that it had a few more pockets, but was still much smaller and lighter than almost any other vest on the market. The seat is quite comfortable, and I love how you can customize it to just leave it alone, and it's where you want it for hunting, but also comfortable to walk around with.

As for the water bottle question, the 300 is bladder compatible...can't remember if the 200 is. With the MOLLE attachment spots, you could easily customize it such as YELPA did to make it exactly what you want. I like mine so far...of course, haven't hunted with it yet. HA!

It does say the backpack is bladder compatible on the 200
