I'd say it's an inordinate scenario,in which a mag precluded a solid rest on an AR,as brush is usually a far greater concern in most AO's. Though admittedly,I've mags of all flavors...............

I might not get all of em' but I damm sure make some noise on the multiples. Weight of the rifle means little to me - I never walk more than a 1/2 mile from the pickup. Too much walking is counter to getting in as many stands in a day (particularly the prime time stands in the morning and evening) as possible.

I use a 5 round mag and could never see using more than a 10(for predator hunting). Do you guys expect to be attacked by a large pack of coyotes? I keep extra ammo in my pocket or truck, but don't need all that extra weight on the gun. All what extra weight? The weight difference between a 20 round mag, and a 5 round mag can't be more than an ounce or so. It's a very small additional amount of aluminum, and spring metal. Those 5-rounders are almost as long as a 20 rounder, mostly dead space. You don't have to fill it up, but having that option is nice.

I like the Stoney Point shooting sticks the best. If you are going to carry both a rifle and shotgun to your stand then the Harris work better since the rifle doesn't have to be placed on the ground. The Harris BP's are much heavier than the shooting sticks. A Doe walks out of the woods today and says, that is the last time I'm going to do that for Two Bucks.
