Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles How many of you are using or considering a tripod for hunting?

RRS TFCT-33

10# AR15, 8# tikka T3, etc

Tripod with anvil 30 head- 4.8#, 28 3/8”

Max distance for hits on 8-10” plate every time? Not sure I mostly shoot at 300 for practice.

Here is my 12y0’s target at 300 doing some practice last summer. She was pretty consistently hanging around 1moa.







Pros? I set my kid up and she dropped her first buck at 303yds with a single perfectly placed shot, she was able to use a sitting position and shoot nearly as well as prone. Works similarly for adults. Binos from standing off the anvil is great

Cons, you have to pack it. In the past I typically packed a tripod for binos and used a bipod, total weight isn’t any different. It’s slower to setup than a bipod. But then again the ability to shoot very steady from standing is worth it imo.

I’m pretty sold on the tripod

When you dive in, you REALLY dive in.

Dandy setup you've got there.


I use a SLIK PRO 700 BHX AMT for night coyote hunting but at 8lbs, it's a tank.
But I'm generally not more than a 1/3 mile from the truck.

The tripod you have is on the 2023 procurement list.
