0:37.8	year in the field experiencing God's creation. I hope you'll enjoy hearing about our
0:42.3	adventures.
0:43.0	Brian, walk our listeners through building what you would consider a perfect rest.
0:50.0	Talk, talk me through how you consider the rest to be perfect as far as using a backpack and what have you.
0:59.0	Okay, that's an interesting question.
1:01.0	I have a lot of guys that say they just like to shoot off a backpack and a backpack is not a bad rest but it's not as good as a pie-tod and here's why. So let's say we know there's Markopol a mile from here and we ride around the corner and we ride on this

1:59.8	Type S model, the kind that pivots. So if you're on a slope, you can level it. And I also put a lever
2:06.0	lock on it. So it comes a little neural knob that tightens the pivoting, but I tend to get a lever.
2:14.0	There are several companies that make them. It's a lever lock, so when you put the rifle in a proper
2:19.4	shooting position, you turn the knob and it locks the gun in on a so it's it locks it on a level
2:24.3	plane so now you don't can't a gun and I use my hand or either sometimes I use a
