Stellarvue M002C Mount or ?
Good morning all ,
I was wondering if the Stellarvue M002C Mount is viable to put on a berno mack 3 tripod.
I want to use it with my Tele Vue 85 .
Is there anything better ?
thanks.

The Stellarvue M2C mount would be ideal with your 85mm.
I have used larger refractors than a 85mm with mine and have had no issues with its use over the time I have owned it.
AOKswiss is 'better' but also much more expensive.

Which tripod exactly do you have?
I went look at the specs on their page and they are all called Mach 3: https://benrousa.com/mach3/

The M2C should work nicely with that tripod.
