The Hornady 99128 Binocular Case Harness with Padded Protection is an unpowered chest rig designed to shield hunting optics from scrub, dust, and impact during active field carry. Built with an exterior 500D nylon Cordura shell and a soft interior microfiber lining, this carrier features an X-panel four-point elastic harness that transfers optical weight across the torso instead of the neck. It offers quiet, one-handed opening for rapid glass deployment and incorporates internal cartridge loops to hold spare centre-fire rifle ammunition alongside compact field accessories.

Key Features

• Four-Point X-Panel Harness: Uses elastic torso straps to distribute the downward pull of optics evenly across the chest and back for all-day trekking.
• Padded Optical Protection: Combines cushioned sidewalls and a scratch-resistant microfiber interior to guard lenses and housings against knocks.
• Abrasion-Resistant Exterior: Constructed from 500D nylon Cordura in Coyote Brown/Tan to endure dense Australian bush and abrasive terrain.
• Quiet Rapid Retrieval: Features heavy-duty, quiet zippers and an accessible opening mechanism for one-handed extraction without spooking game.
• Integrated Storage: Fitted with internal elastic ammunition loops for standard centre-fire rifle cartridges, plus space for small items like a compact laser rangefinder or GPS.

Who is the Hornady Binocular Case Harness for?

• Spot-and-stalk big game hunters — relies on the 500D nylon Cordura construction to resist abrasive scrub while keeping standard 8×42 or 10×42 roof-prism binoculars protected and accessible in a 7.5 in × 10.2 in × 3.4 in form factor during long treks.
• Precision rifle field scouters — utilizes this binocular harness chest pack to organise core glass and spare centre-fire rounds within the internal 7.5 in (W) × 10.2 in (H) × 3.4 in (D) profile while keeping hands free to manipulate rifles and gear.

Less suitable for: optics exceeding 7.5 inches in width, 10.2 inches in height, or 3.4 inches in depth (such as 15×56 or large Porro-prism binoculars), which require an oversize chest rig.
