Tripod collars in this price class are not worth the plastic they're made off...
Except Tamron 150-600 G2, all other 150-600 (including Nikon 200-500) have close to useless collars - none of them covers the center of mass, and only the sports version of the Sigma allows to adapt a long enough foot as expensive accessory.
All I wanna say: It's not loss at all to have no collar. The lesn is very well baalnced and ideal for free hand use. If you feel better to use a tripod, go for this accessory:
