Don't know those two but you might take a look at the Eberlestock X2, I've owned one for several years and have found it too be tough and functional.
I bought the Eberlestock h2 gunrunner recently on eBay. A little smaller than these, at about 1,400cc; the X2 is more comparable to what you've listed, but all I needed in a day pack was a compartment for a bladder and some food, a layer and a good scabbard with good access to my rifle. What are your objectives for this pack? That will guide your selection.

With 8 waters plus my spotting scope and tripod, knife and food I almost forget I even have it on..
from my research, I am not a huge fan of the tenzing packs. I think they are way too over priced. Look at the the eberlestock "Just one series" or the kuiu packs. everything else seems too expensive or the quality just isn't there. the eberlestock "just one series" and the kuiu packs are very light weight, offer volume for day packs or over night stays and are a lot more practical for packing out game on long back country hunts. I am eventually going to go with one of these brands
Thanks everyon one for your great advise on the daypacks. I just found a good article on kuiu's blog about the icon pro 1850. For $150 more than the tenzing and blacks creek remedy 7 you get a full carbon frame pack that's compatable with all their other packs in the icon line and weighs only 3.9lbs with the frame included. I'm going to order one when I get back from my yearly fishing trip to the high sierras
