I couldn’t piece together a tripod with a saddle for what I paid for it or I would have gone a different route for sure It will be used in the morning by my nephew on the Tn youth hunt out of a blind If I was shooting Comp or very weight conscious definitely wouldn’t get it. For a .75 mile walk in and out it’s not a issue. If you check budsGun shop online they had the Best price for it I could find anywhere. Bass pro matched the price and I picked one up in person.

I think I’ll get one. I want to dump my cabelas points anyway now that they’ve turned into what they have. No further than we would carry it weight isn’t going to be a issue here either. I also think it would show me if I needed or wanted to invest in a better one.

Shoot me a PM if your close Bass pro price matched budsgunshop online for me and that was the lowest price I found it at btw. Could have changed by now though I mainly got it for my kids, but have also used it with success for myself. If I was a Comp shooter or at the level of aalf I would probably have invested more. But I’m not! Lol

MtnBoomer Campfire 'Bwana M Joined: Sep 2010 Posts: 31,402 59644	Originally Posted by Jordan Smith For hunting I use one of these: https://triclawps.com/collections/all and Slik 340DX legs. The setup is strong and fairly light. For competition I use Slik 700DX legs and a leveling base with QR Arca adapter. The Arca setup is more stable and compact than the cradle, but also less versatile (rifle needs Arca rail on the stock/chassis). If your hunting rifle has an Arca rail near the front action screw, then that setup is pretty awesome, but the cradle is pretty darn stable as well. I use the cradle and smaller tripod legs for hunting because not all the rifles I hunt with have Arca rails (most don't), and the setup is lighter and more portable with the smaller legs, but still plenty strong for sporter-weight rifles.

They say they went with the polymer as superior to aluminum and I think they are right on. I'll spare ya'll the view from the couch pics, but, it holds my heaviest rifle steady with eaze.

ST344C’s load capacity is significantly higher than the RT80c and it’s not as big or heavy than the RT90c and carries nearly as much load. John Last edited by Hondo64d; 01/19/21.

It works well for what I do which is mainly stand hunting, consequently weight is not a factor. I'll set it up and leave it until I leave I find it to be plenty steady for any type of rifle I employ I recently purchased the ATN HD 4K pro night vision scope for night-time varming and hog hunting. I can set it up with the rifle securely positioned toward a point of impact and use wi-fi to stream to my tablet. Don't have to keep my eye glued to the scope. Makes a big difference at night. ya!
