Is the manfrotto tripod with ball head a good tool to use to mount rifles for sighting them in? Say, better than sand bags/tripod or a sled?

Just curious - looks pretty solid, but never used one.

May be a dumb question, but I know my rifles shoot better than I do and just trying to find the best way...

having one with the LT666 setup, I would say no, use a sled or bags

I only said I wouldn't use it for zeroing a rifle, not that I wouldn't use it

Yep, my 8 and 10 yo use it for hunting.  Here is their standing 100m target off the manfrotto.

Sir,
Your boresnake rattle - is that a weight or a warning? How do you get the head through?

Its simple really.  The number of buttons indicates the appropriate caliber.  In this case, the 15 rattle buttons indicates it is appropriate for an AR 15.  with regard to passing the head  ..........  you just gotta want it.  Cuidado de salud, muchacho, it may be a once in a lifetime experience
