Extremely impressed!
Apex 55 is a solid ball head! I absolutely love it! I didn't find it to be too much of a learning curve compared to the 44mm I already own. Most of my rifles are 11 lbs or less, with a slight twist of the knob, my rifle is solid and it's not budging! I have no doubt this ball head will be just as sturdy with a heavier set up. I had my eye on the inverted since day 1 and I don't regret this purchase one bit! It has met all my expectations and some. You don't have to use an area 419 rail either, there is a switch on the side to turn arcalock on or off. A nice feature if I let my husband borrow my tripod. Thank you Two Vets for another quality product!
