    I need a better clamp for my tripod that grabs Arca rails. I was a miser and got one off Amazon with a thumb wheel for tightening. It doesn't clamp hard enough to stop a rifle from sliding during recoil.

    What is out there that has more clamping force and a lever lock, rather than a thumb wheel?

    I am using a Manfrotto with this levelling head:
    LB-60

    It will have to be able to screw on to that. Please don't say, "buy a better tripod" etc. I rarely ever shoot off a tripod, so what I have suffices for me. I just need a better clamp. Thanks in advance.

    Search ebay for this. You can find them already in the US so you dont have to wait for it from china. It has a wheel that you can set to get the right clamp force and use the quick release lever. Its definately not a RRS but for around $15 it works well.
