Abstract: The present invention discloses a tripod for rifle hunting comprising a connecting head with legs hinged thereto. The legs can rotate inwardly or outwardly relative to the connecting head around a hinge axis, and a locking component is installed on the connecting head to limit inward rotation of the legs. Compared to existing technology, the locking component on the connecting head restricts the legs after they are extended, preventing inward rotation relative to the connecting head. This ensures that the legs do not rotate inward due to kick recoil during shooting, thus maintaining the stability of the tripod and preventing collapse due to kick recoil force.
