As the title says, Neewer has another 50% off sale, several of their tripods are 50% off including this one...It is not a RRS but it is a decent tripod for decent money...

I purchased the older model on OP's recommendation.
Great tripod, especially for the price. I'll probably grab another one at this price. This new one doesn't have the stupid center post. |

It has one but is optional to use...LOL, I actually like it without it...This tripod is very very configurable..neat little tripod if you can make use of it.... For anyone that gets one, when it comes it is configured with the long legs, but inside the carry case is a zippered pocket which holds the instructions, tools and the short legs...the center post is just floating loose in the main compartment... A few guys last time thought theirs was missing stuff because they missed the inner pocket.... |

I like the one I got the last time around, I am using it for my spotting scope. I do wish it had the little handle that twists for loosening and tightening it when there is a scope on it. Getting it dialed into a target at 200 yards is a little bit of a pain, like takes me a good 30-45 seconds. It becomes a real pain when changing ranges a bunch, like shoot at 100, then change to 200 and back.
edit I mean the one that sticks back like a handle and is used to aim and tighten. |

I do hunt with a really light thin tripod, but I know it's limited to sitting or kneeling. No worries..If you look at how it is when I stuck my bolt rifle on it, the short legs arn't on it...just the long legs, it ends up an inch or two shorter than my older Neewer which I have shot off and feels every bit as steady as that one is... But yeah for anyone who is going to be shooting off it a bunch, a heavier tripod would be better...But for a hunters needs for a casual use here and there when you have to cover a lot of ground on foot..hard to beat..I also have a couple of vortex tripods as well, their old heavy duty Pro GT and their light weight summit SST.. the Pro GT doesn't hold my rifle any better and the summit is to light to hang the heavy rifle on..again, its for packing around on foot when you have to cover a lot of ground but still need stabile optics...All good though, I agree with you, anyone shooting a lot will want a heavier tripod to shoot off most likely...But for the casual use here and there it will do fine...

Well I ordered one.
So all I need to attach a rifle to this is a swiss arca rail? Cause I ordered a couple two-slot ones since I can mount those far back on the handguard right by the balance point of most of my rifles. Anything else needed? Good news is if I decide I need a more stout one, this one will encourage me to finally get a spotting scope and rig it up for that. Thanks! |

Thanks a ton op. I figured I’d get a pig and a bag and see how I use the combo. Didn’t know eurooptic is the same as scope list but had “make an offer” and snagged a pig and bag pretty cheap compared to others. I think the pig was 115 and the bag was 95
