Heads and saddles for the Coyote Hunter
"Maker says it fits" means the head maker or NightSnipe sells the two together or names the pairing on its own page. "Interfaces match" is our check that the published top meets the head's published base; the parts connect, but no maker has said so. Rig figures are calculated from both makers' numbers.
Rig weight is this tripod's published weight plus the head's; rig load is the lower of the two published ratings. Top of head adds the head maker's published height to NightSnipe's maximum, which NightSnipe measures without a head. Blank where a maker does not publish the number. All heads and saddles.

| Arca-Swiss Arca-Swiss A dovetail rail and clamp standard for tripod heads. A rail or plate on the rifle slides into an Arca clamp on the head and locks with a knob or lever, so the rifle goes on and off the tripod in seconds. | No, add an Arca head or clamp |
| Bowl Tripod bowl A cup-shaped top, usually 75 or 100 mm, that takes a leveling head. You level the rifle in the bowl without adjusting the legs. | — |
