    Looking on the website, no it does not. Lots of options to choose from depending on what your budget and requirements are. I use a Manfrotto MT055XPRO3 and a ball head for my setup... that will have a Death grip replacing the pig-saddle soon and its perfect. If I was going to hunt with it, I'd look at the carbon fiber model.

    I know they did have some tripods at the shop a while back, I'm sure they could rig you up if needed.

    There are many options and configurations that can be had.

    That was our finding as well. There are a few cheaper set ups that are made of plastic or stamped metal, but the only true comparable product is the US made Hog Saddle.

    Pig Saddle (comparable price) does not equal the Hog Saddle (more $$$).

    I have not seen this particular product in person but it looks a lot more like the Hog Saddle than the Pig Saddle and its price is a good bit lower.

    The RRS Vice (if you can even get one) is $344USD.

    Have not seen a kopflfakakaskljasdgf (spelling on the is questionable) Reaper Grip but from what I have read it is a less serious piece of gear.

    Maybe Rick and boys will bring one down this weekend.

    No it is actually a highly refined copy. I handled 1 today and it is more like a precision vise. Very well made and several added features not found on the hog saddle. I like the blue, but I am sure if we asked nicely maybe another color could be offered?

    It's not though! It has a "T bar" design. And it's called the DEATHGRIP. *face palm*

    Possibly he is meaning the additional threaded holes for mounting? Possibly some of the accessory items we have prototypes of?

    Although it performs the same function as a hog saddle does there are several improvements, and there are only so many ways to make a rifle vise.
