Advice for Leofoto tripod base or head

[jp67]

Hi guys,
I need advice for a head or leveling base for a Leofoto model LN-364C tripod.
Thanks

I am using the RRS-TA3 leveling base with my 364C. I had to swap out the RRS bowl and install the bowl that was included with the tripod, so that it locks in properly. No issues at all.

Isn't your 364C tripod + RRS-TA3 too heavy to carry around at a match? i am looking for light but it get pricey

I just bought the 364C also on the Ebay coupon deal earlier this week. I also ordered the RRS-TA3 head as @shotdown did above. I think this will be a very solid setup. As for weight.....we aren't walking that far at matches. Plus you are toting a 17-22 pound rifle. What is another 5 pounds gonna matter? No, I wouldn't carry it thru the Rockies chasing elk, but as far as a match, I think it would be a non-issue.

It weighs about 6.8 lbs with the head. I have carried it and does add weight but I carried it in my Eberlestock just fine. I would reconsider for a match that requires a lot of hiking though.
