    USPS lost stock in trade what next?

    Skim bedding should pop right off. By modifying I should clarify spent more money on it. Added fwd rail and grip and recoated. Nothing detracting from value quite the opposite in fact. Send back with upgrades for his hassle is what Im thinking. I have had it go both ways with retailers. A few...

    USPS lost stock in trade what next?

    In 10+ years buying, selling and trading here on the Hide my luck ran out. Traded stocks with another member here and USPS I think lost the package that I sent. Was supposed to be delivered on the 20th and as of the 24th still not delivered or any tracking updates. I did insure it so thats a...

    What I was driving at was the large tripod will clear the RRS leveling base no problem when folded 180.

    Or just leave it attached. But agree milling stock is best option and thanks for pointing out Sawtooth!

    Arca Swiss Plate for MPA Chassis

    Recently spoke with them about this. You van send stock to them and they will mill the dovetail fot $50.00 but will not be doing this till end of June early July. They are also set to offer a plate that will replace the pic rail on the Trinity mount. Last you can make your own by simply...

    So I had the 3472 (4 section) and plan on the 3342 (3 sectio). Without having them side by side I think or hope the difference between the 42 and 72 will ne minimal as I will be going from a 4 section to 3. Had same experience cheap dosnt cut it for leg choices for precision shots. Hogs and...

    So there were quite a few complaints about the Feisol leveling base either being tottally floppy (unlocked) or completly ridgid (locked). With the RRS you can adjust the tension. Has that been your experiance as well? Would really like to run the Feisol leveling base if it can function in the...

    I mean the qd plate for the tripod. Not really any more or less awkward than a hog saddle. The rifle is clipped in vs being clamped.

    Yeah same idea I guess. Both the leveling bases are the same and probably made in same factory in China. The one I linked has a clamp and plate so you could keep it simple and get that one and mount plate to your rifle if you are not afraid to drill the stock.

    Chorizo check out the "Gemtune" leveling base on Amazon. I had one on a Zomie 818 and while the tripod was too flimsy the leveling base was gtg for the $ Gemtune Leveling Base DY-60i with Quick Release Clamp and plate ,Offset bubble level Replaces Sunwayfoto DYH-66i RRS,Benro,Kirk,Markins,Arca...

    If you are not afraid to drill the stock you can attach a QD plate direct to stock and skip the saddle. Just not a universal solution for multiple rifles.

    I was just thinking about that type if set up recently! When I say stable what I specificly mean is torsional twisting. Putting a rifle on saddle or clamp just adds a long lever onto the tripod at a right angle. With the rear supported like that how much of that is reduced?

    Im not captain moneybags either lol. I picked up the tripod from B&H used at 175.00 less than new and used a cupon code for the leveling base. Myself and another member here collectivly spent way too much time and $ trying to convince ourselves there was a cheaper option vs RRS. Afterall its...

    Weight is not a valid argument as the calumet tripod weighs same as Feisol 3342 and the feisol is rated for 55lbs vs 16. To be fair its also 2x cost. Folks look at the size of RRS and Feisol and assume they weigh a ton...they dont which is a big part of the cost. I hear ya on the ball head vs...

    Pic above sums up why details are important to the reccomendation. What height do you primarily plan to run tripod at? In the sitting position most lightweight rigs work just fine. Legs retracted you have 3 layers of leg stability. Run a lightweight tripod to full extention and the leg...

    What does stability have to do with a fluid head? 15lb rated fluid head will not be more stable than a 30lb rated leveling base. Am I missing something?
