I've gone through a few different tripod setups now and what I run for shooting matches is a Leofoto 404C with an Anvil-30 on it. About as stable as it gets (for someone like me too cheap to get the full RRS setup) but too heavy for hunting and honestly overkill as well. I'll be using an old Manfrotto 055 X-ProB for hunting as it's less than 1/2 the weight of the Leofoto and I've made standing hits on small targets with it out to 830 (which isn't a requirement for me for hunting). What I'm looking for is something similar in function and weight to my Anvil-30 without having to buy a second one or constantly swap them around. Is there anything out there that guys have used? I'm really only expecting to use the tripod for seated or kneeling shots.
