[QUOTE="jeephunter, post: 1249874, member: 98700"] Something I just picked up was this Tribe Provisions Ultralight stool. This thing is pretty great! It weighs 12oz and is pretty comfortable for me to sit on. However it opens up several new unconventional positions that are very stable and very fast to get into: 1) while sitting on the stool, my knees are higher up than a regular chair (like a semi-squat but supported under my butt) eg I can rest my elbow on my thigh and put my gun comfortably ontop of my left hand since it's supported all the way down to my knees then into the ground 2) while sitting on the ground, I can deploy my short prone bipod on top of the chair and comfortably shoot from sitting with the bipod higher up - previously in this position I need a different sitting bipod or bipod sticks 3) while sitting on the ground, I can sit cross legged and put my left elbow into the chair and rest my gun on top of that for an alternative to 2 - #2 is still more comfortable long term since pressure isn't on my arm for hours. 4) I can rest the entire gun stock on the stool and and get an elevated prone position if you need to fire up hill and need more elevation in the front of your gun than the bipod can supply. Haven't gone to the range but I glassed through my scope some far away targets and all these are pretty stable. To help out even more, I took my bino X case and used it under my right shooting arm elbow while sitting as an addition rest and it works great. I'm still going to see how the tripods work in the field but I'm really liking this chair as it's a lot lighter than any other options I have on order. [/QUOTE]
