RRS TFC

[tex68w]

Are any of you using an Anvil 30 with the TFC fixed apex tripod? My Last tripod was a TFCT that had the base for the apex, I worry running the Anvil direct to the stud on the TFC-33 might not be the most secure option for a rifle. Should I retire the TFC to bino use only or will it be durable enough for rifle use?

I would opt for the Anvil specific apex.

I fear that has been discontinued.

I run an avil attached to a bowl plate with stud on one my tripods, 25# prs rig, zero issues.

That sucks. Could you swap to a Versa series bowl, and then use the $65 Anvil adapter plate?

True, and if I can't find the TFCT apex conversion then I might consider that but it'll make the footprint larger. I reached out to RRS to see if they still plan to make them or if they are indeed discontinued like EuroOptic lists them.

I saw that euro optics says discontinued. Everyone else including RRS says out of stock.

Yea maybe that's a good sign that it's not in fact discontinued. I'll see how RRS responds, until then I'll try the Anvil direct to the TFC.
