John: I was about to suggest soft cases inside a Tuffpak when I read your post on that just above here. I spoke with a guy at an airport once who does that for Africa hunting. He had a Tuffpak(with wheels?)designed for a golf bag and puts his guns inside in soft cases and packs clothing around them to fill the case - a bombproof setup that served him well on nine trip to Africa. You might consider using the short soft cases from LL Bean or Boyt that hold the gun broken down - that would fit much better in the Cub when flying into camp. Leave the Tuffpak in town. I use the short cases in my plane and like them MUCH better than full length soft cases.
