Default Tripod Recommendation sought

I am looking for a tripod light enough to use for long backpacking treks that will accommodate both optics (binos/spotter) and a rifle rest (just swap out top pc). I would prefer a rifle rest that supports the rifle (holds it parrellel to the ground) even when untouched. Need a rock solid rest for LR shots. Is there such a tripod? Really don't wanna carry a tripod and shooting sticks anymore.

The state with the most unrestrictive gun regulations, Vermont, has the lowest murder rate at 0.48 per 100,000.

This is a heck of a topic... I found these threads useful when looking into tripods:

Take away questions: what is your budget? How heavy is your rifle? Are you able/willing to put a tripod mount on your rifle stock? Do you want a leveling base?
