I just bought 2 Pelican Vault V770's to try.
I think they are a good balance between weight and size for back and forth duties. My current rifles just barely fit. No way, I'd air travel with this case and the minimal padding around the rifle and optic though.
For the most part, I think hard cases are over kill for back and forth and the weight they add isn't worth it. But I also find that placing a soft case in the back of my truck is more effort than the ease of a hard case sliding in.
