I’ve tried just about every type of tripod head out there and this is the best! Very lightweight, quick to mount up, adjust and maneuver with easy. Just all around the best hands down. Buy and shoot with confidence!

Moved from a rrs leveling head to this one. Love the longer handle, the quick lock/release of the handle. All around great leveling head.

10/10 Amazing. Super smooth but will lock rock solid in half turn. Paired with the warrior tripod, has to be the best combo out there today. More rock solid than many bench rest I’ve used in the past.

This is just what I needed! As a photographer/predator hunter, I was already outfitted with a couple of robust tripods, and I have been using both a Wimberly gimbal and Really Right Stuff (RRS) ball head for photography. Neither of those heads is exactly optimal for mounting a rifle to, especially if the person on the rifle happens to be a 7/8 year-old trying to harvest a deer, but even for the standard user, they are not quite the perfect tool for the job. Enter The Chief Leveling Base. The person on the rifle can easily hang onto the rifle with one hand, manipulate the twist knob of the base, and get lined up on your target before locking it back down with ease. When I saw this concept, I knew it was the answer to the frustrations I had with the other platforms, and it has proven to be good to go.
One item to note for those of you who might already have some camera tripod accessories though–I have discovered that the Arca Swiss BRAND plates do not completely match the profile of the Really Right Stuff or Wimberly ones…to the point that the Chief will not lock down on the Arca Swiss manufactured plates. I thought I would be able to retrofit one with M-lok bolts to make it work with the Chief, but since the head does not contact it in all the right places, that plate is out of play. It was not until I compared the heights of the RRS ball head and the Chief that I was able to notice that the Chief clamps are ever so slightly shorter than the RRS. So I would suggest to any DIY-minded folks out there to either purchase the Warrior plates (that are already outfitted with M-lok bolts even for a great price) or RRS used plates (which seem to run the same or higher prices and do not have the holes or M-lok bolts already).
The other thing to note is, as I mentioned, the tripod I am running is manufactured by a different company, and due to my experience in the photography equipment arena, I was able to deduce that the Chief base should be compatible with my current gear. A simple swap of the included “bowl” with the one that came with my tripod, and bam, I am in business! I am by no means trying to convince folks to look for a lesser quality tripod than what Warrior Tripods offers, but if you happen to have a photography tripod and think that you have to sell it to get one that is compatible with this head, do a little research and verify whether you could do something similar to what I did.
I just wanted to share my experiences, and I urge anyone considering this tripod head to look hard at it before considering other platforms that do not fit the bill quite as well.

This leveling base is amazing! I have wasted lots of money on other ball heads that have not held up after extreme use. The chief has remained rock solid after putting it to the test. I personally clamped my 20lb precision rifle build in to the chief and it handled it with ease. The quick detach system works flawlessly and provides for a super secure lock up. It even has tension adjustment when running deferent plates to make sure you connection is always tight! I also love the fact that you do not experience any loosening of the leveling base when panning like you do with other leveling bases! Great execution of this leveling base Warrior Tripods! I highly recommend this product!

“The Chief Leveling Base” lives up to its name. I found out real quick that my Amazon bought arca rail was going to possibly be the weak link to my “The Commander Tripod” coupled with “The Chief Leveling Base” combo, so I decided to also purchase their Mloc Arca Plate 5.5″. (I wrote a review on “The Commander Tripod” that expresses how happy I am with my Warrior Tripod setup).
