Maybe head into the Optics forum and search for the word tripod, tons of threads.

I have a Sunpak tripod that was at your price limit that I'm happy with.

I went with a Vortex which is close to that price point. They are a little heavier but I like knowing it has a lifetime warranty if I ever break it. Just read the fine print as some of their cheaper models only have a 2yr warranty and not the lifetime.

This is a pretty good lightweight option.

FYI: you will probably be looking for 2 parts: the tripod and the head. They are not the same. The head will allow it to swivel around, usually a ball joint. Sometimes you can find them integrated. I prefer pistol grip too on my head, makes it easy to manipulate.

I got mine from Sears. I think it was around $30.
Came with a carry case.

It always amazes me how many people don't search the older threads. That being said I am a big fan of Slik tripods. The price is VERY reasonable, are lightweight and durable. I have had one for about 5 years and don't have any complaints. I would love some of the more expensive options (manfrotto or Outdoorsman) but have a hard time justifying paying the same amount of money for a tripod as an out of state hunt.
