Looking at getting a new tripod/head combo that I can use for photography/observation/rifle platform. Going with Manfrotto 055XPROB and I think a ball head (like the 498). I like the ball head over the 322RC2 grip head due to greater stability for holding a rifle. I can mount a rail on my McRee back near the mag well and was thinking of putting the LaRue LT666 QD adapter on that rail. With the RC2 plate, this would give me many QD options for rifle, spotting scope and camera.
Question is, will the LaRue LT666 fit any other QD heads besides the 322RC2? On their site it states it will only fit the 322RC2. On Manfrotto's site the plate used for any of the RC2 models is the same, the 200PL-14. If they all use the same connector plate, shouldn't the LaRue adapter fit any head with the RC2?
Has anyone successfully used the LaRue adapter on a Manfrotto head other than the 322RC2?
May still get a PRS saddle as well but the HOG saddle is too rich for my blood at this time.
