After my recent post about a packable spotting scope, I purchased the Vortex Razor HD 16-48x65. I am looking for a decent tripod that will hold this unit with ease.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have the vortex summit ss and like it a lot. Got it from elknut
I was looking at that one with a pan head...
And looking at a Vanguard with pan head also.
The vortex one is a pound or so lighter.

It comes with a ball head, and I generally don't like those, but the panning feature on it makes it alright.

Best part? You could pick up the pair for around 150$ total.
