    Gave it quick try. Pulled the old pin out of the rubber and the leg sits nicely in the foot. So i will drill hole into the leg for the grub screw then loctite in place.

    Those spikes are crap in rocky country. Backpack, its the shooting rest for all occasions and surfaces, and its free and doesn't weigh anything (because you need it anyhow)
