Field Tested: Nick Biederman on Handgun Hunting Rests (Featuring Ultradot Optics)

When it comes to field shooting positions, few people break it down with as much clarity and firsthand experience as Nick Biederman. In his recent article for Handgun Hunting Afield, Nick dives deep into field support systems for handgun hunting—covering everything from bags and bipods to tripods and slings.

And while the focus is on rests, we couldn’t help but notice what’s riding on top of his handguns in most of the photos: Ultradot optics.

Whether it’s the Matchdot II or the UD30S Gen 2, Nick’s setups reflect exactly why Ultradot remains a trusted name among handgun hunters. When your sight picture matters, and you need consistent point of impact regardless of position or rest, Ultradot delivers.

Nick explores:

• The importance of avoiding barrel pressure and maintaining consistent grip and mechanics.

• A range of support options from Cole Tac’s Bitty Bag to Trifecta’s Hybrid Hunter II and Ambush rests.

• Creative DIY setups like leather-topped homemade bags and 3D-printed tac tables.

• Gear versatility depending on hunting style—from tree stand to field edge to stalk hunts.

It’s a masterclass in real-world fieldcraft for the handgun hunter.

If you’re a hunter or precision shooter looking to build a more stable shooting platform—and want to make sure your optic can keep up—Nick’s insights are well worth the read.

📸 And yes, we’re proud that Ultradot optics are along for the ride.
