Just arrived from the Hog Saddle guys.
"The Grunt of Tripods"
The PIG0311-G tripod is based off of the budget friendly yet capable SLIK DX700PRO tripod. The Hog Saddle guys partnered up with Slik and started putting together several prototypes with beefed up specs, tighter tolerances and shooter specific features that are not readily available. Eight months of testing later they came up with this field tripod.
During testing they used several 50 cal rifles (Barrett M107 & McMillan Tac50) with great results regarding officer feedback and repeatable shot placement. Being unsure of what kind of garage cannon that might be placed on the PIG0311-G tripod, they decided to stick with a conservative 26 pound load rating.
A no-nonsense field tripod designed for the active outdoorsman. This tripod was meant to get dirty, be thrown in trucks, and be used outside. Paired with a direct mounted PIG Saddle, this tripod can do almost anything a more expensive tripod kit can do (At a fraction the cost).
These are not regular off the shelf Slik Tripods painted green with a rattle can, they are factory build by SLIK for Shadow Tech (the Hog Saddle guys)to there specs .
