Choosing the Right Case Series for Your Hunt
Pelican offers a variety of case series, each with specific strengths that cater to different hunting styles and gear.
1. The Heavy-Duty Champion: Pelican Protector Series
For the hunter who demands maximum strength and doesn't mind a little extra weight for ultimate security, the Protector Series is the benchmark.
- Key Cases: The Pelican 1750 Protector Long Case (54" interior length) is a legendary choice, easily accommodating most long rifles and popular among hunters for its proven durability.
- Best For: Extreme conditions, overlanding, throwing in the back of a truck, and commercial air travel where maximum impact resistance is non-negotiable.
2. The Backcountry Traveler: Pelican Air Series
If you're flying to your hunting destination or need to carry your gear over long distances, the Air Series is your answer. They are up to 40% lighter than other polymer cases without compromising protection.
- Key Cases: The Pelican 1755 Air Long Case (58" interior length) and the 1745 Air Bow Case are excellent options. The lighter weight is a game-changer when trying to stay under airline baggage weight limits.
- Best For: International hunting trips, traveling hunters, and anyone needing maximum protection at a minimum weight.
3. Rugged Protection on a Budget: Pelican Vault Series
The Vault Series provides Pelican's signature rugged protection—crushproof, dustproof, and weather-resistant—at a price point that appeals to more hunters and shooters.
- Key Cases: The V800 Vault Double Rifle Case is a favorite, able to securely hold two scoped rifles, while the V730 Vault Tactical Rifle Case and the V770 Vault Single Rifle Case are excellent options for a single firearm and accessories. The line also includes the V250 Ammo Case.
- Best For: Hunters who need reliable, secure transport for their firearms without the premium price tag of the Protector or Air lines.
More Than Just Rifles: Protect Your Entire Kit
Don't stop at your firearm. Pelican offers cases in all sizes for the rest of your hunting essentials:
- Small Cases (e.g., 1200, 1400): Perfect for protecting rangefinders, GPS devices, cameras, binoculars, first-aid kits, or small pistols.
- Medium Cases (e.g., 1500, 1510): Great for larger optics, radios, drone gear, or a larger supply of ammunition.
- Accessories: Remember to grab a Peli Desiccant (silica gel) to help prevent moisture buildup inside your sealed case, especially after a hunt in wet conditions.
