Precision Rifle Gear Best Leofoto tripod for NRL/PRS?

[awcmon]

I got a 50% off Leofoto tripod kit from NRL22 nationals since I desperately needed a tripod (luckily managed to borrow a friend's but I need my own from here on out). What's the best tripod for NRL/PRS that Leofoto offers? I want to maximize that 50% off and have no idea what the difference between all the tripods are.

For context, I'm 6'0" and one of the stages had us shoot off a tripod (either clamped or off a tac table) so I'm interested in practicing that. Otherwise it'll mostly be used for glassing and general utility (as a table, carrying markers and stuff, etc).

I'm in the same boat. Wish I would have written down the models of the ones we used on that stage.

This is the one that had the tac table on it. The other one was an SO “x” inverted with an inverted ballhead.

If you’re not packing this around the mountains, you’ll want the largest diameter legs and the biggest bowl apex they offer for the best stability.

SA-404CLX+MA-40X is a little heavy but extends up to 71" and has a capacity rating of 88lb.

I have the Leofoto inverted, SO-322CX and the Leofoto STB-75 X. It's fine for glassing or using a spotting scope, it is terrible for shooting from. There is so much flex and wobble it just sucks to try and build a stable shooting position from. Before I got the STB-75 X I had a normal bowel with a leveling head, it was marginally more stable but the tripod still had an unreal amount of flex. I also have a traditional Leofoto 4 section tripod and it doesn't flex nearly as much, but still has some noticeable flex to it compared to an RRS.

My other tripods are RRS and they are rock solid, with a bowel/leveling head or the Anvil 30.

I have 3 Leofoto tripods: LN-364c, Ranger LS-365c, and SO-362cx. I use the compact LS-365c for hunting, and my son carries it for PRS matches because it can slip into my pack easily if he gets tired of hauling it - but it’s largely too small and I don’t like ball heads as much as leveling bases. I used the LN-365c for PRS matches for 7 years, and really, really like that tripod. But I got an SO-362cx last season and love the lighter weight and single pull design.

If I were to only have one, it would be the SO.

The downside, I will admit, is that all 3 of mine are by and large too tall for low kneeling tac-table type rear support. I haven’t shot from a tripod at a PRS match in several years - pre-covid if memory serves - but using a tac-table rear support would be very nice. A shorter multi-pull model with a solid platform would be nice to have in my pack.

Anyone have any input between these 3
SO-362CX Inverted, LM-403CX and the SA-403CX
