Don't you spend your money old chap till you've tried my £3 alternative, I guarantee the literally thousands of rats rabbits foxes and deer that iv,e shot off them would not know the difference. (Unless your just a tackle tart)
I nearly bought one a few months back, I'm on the verge of ordering one again. Any cheaper alternative, s ? any known faults with the Primos tripod version ?

Good when they work, but they are NOT weatherproof in my experience and once you get water in the legs they become problematic. They are not obviously serviceable, but can be taken apart and serviced (drying and free-ing up rust, lubricating etc) if you have the courage to take them apart, but that would invaildate the warranty no doubt.

I've been using an £11 cheapo, mono stick job from the bay for around a year now.
It's in 3 sections that can be untwisted and extended just like a painting roller pole.
It's got good rubber padding in the 'V' for the rifle.
It's light and easy to carry.
All of the above.
Mmmm think I will hang fire for a bit longer

Absobloodlylutley old chap! Can't go wrong.
I use two sets, one made from 6' green plastic coated canes and one from 3' , but I very rarely use the latter.
Once you get the knack they are totally rock solid, I rarely take a shot without them.
I drill them seven inches from the top, pop a bolt through, several washers either side, honestly can't go wrong. Only other thing is pop some pipe lagging a foot up from the bottom of one leg to stop any chance of them tapping against each other.
And p bloody s! I thought you were coming down to do some moleing?
Just go and get one , had mine a few years and never been a problem and yes you can buy cheaper ones but they are crap
If your ground is rough from livestock, or ploughing, undulating or hilly then trigger sticks are the business, no matter what height or angle you need to shoot, pull the trigger & there it is rock solid, silently in about 3 seconds.
once you use them it's hard to go back to a lesser design, pricy but just about worth every penny.
