The weight on wildland fire packs are low so I wouldn’t recommend it.
What weight do you want to ruck? Amount?
I have been looking at the Go Ruck Rucker and the Speed Ruck. I think I want to be able to run the 45 lb plate so I will go with the Rucker. I’d like to have a pack that is ready to ruck instead of pulling the plate in and out of my fire bag.
Make sure to get a sternum strap and hip belt, I love those but my background is backpacking and the Go Ruck design comes from military where they don’t like those things. Thinking about this depending on the weight, an basic pack from REI might fit the bill.
I’ll be following the thread. I think you might want to ruck with what you got for a little while but change out to duct taped bag of sand instead of the ammo can.
I do really like the Go Ruck Ruck Plates I got. I actually got an extra 20lb one I could part with.
