Spotter arca plate

[ofl0926]

What are you guys using for your spotters? I have a Kowa 883 and I’m looking at some arca plates.

I have a RRS with an anvil on it
I plan on putting a a panner in it to make it easier to glass.

Nothing wrong with ty-70’s. Just depends on what else you’re running on the tripod and how much adjusting you want to do

So I plan on running my rifle on the anvil. I was to a RRS pc-lr or similar to use on top of the anvil to glass with my bino and spotter. The plate will be permanently attached to the spotter.

I use the outdoorsman's arca rail for my spotter.

Why not use RRS ARCA rails?

Good option but a pretty penny for just a plate. It’s what I was originally going to get but was trying to see if there was anything else.
Another thing too is that I have the outdoorsman bino adapter on my binos. If I get the panner from them, I could just use the outdoorsman adapter to run it on top of the RRS anvil. I’m going to confirm all this today with Outdoorsman

If you’re just needing a plate between your Anvil 30 and your panning head (which is what quite a few people do), then about any Arca plate will work. The clamping force and width range of the Anvil 30 can accommodate fairly large variances in plate widths.
