Got myself a Deerhunter RAM jacket (available in Realtree OR Green)off ebay for £70. Got to say it's the dogs.....already been out in a downpour and not a drop seeped through. It's light, waterproof and silent, great for shooting. Not sure i'd trust it for beating or heading through brambles but I guess that's what my Barbour is for eh? :thumbs:

I'd go for the Ram jacket as a decent knock about field coat for that price, Though if you cvould find a cheap Montana they are better.
If it was me and I was lookin for sommat to last, i'd go for a second hand 'heavyweight' Barbour. Wax holy feck out of it and wear a fleece under in cold weather, i'd bet within a month or two it'll feel like an old friend! :rolleyes:

I never really saw the point in buying a Barbour always thought cheaper Wax Jackets were just as good.... until I got bought one. I won't be going back! Extremely hard wearing, Waterproof and it's only about £30 for a full service on it (reproofing, sew up small tears etc.)
Bad points are they can get bloody heavy when wet, if you get a longer version (just above your knees) the zip can rip out of the bottom seam.
My mate has a Ram jacket which he rates very highly for mooching about but once the weather turns bad his old Barbour is dug out of the cupboard again.

If you can afford it, why not go for both?
