I concur with the long case for hunting/shooting trips. I use a Filson and/or Boyt long canvas case and also have each gun in a gun sock. The long cases fit nicely and snuggly atop my folded up back truck cab seats, out of the way and out of sight, but readily accessible. I damaged the stock of a nice gun once when I used to carry guns in take down cases. Never again.
