Huntin'AZ Report post Posted September 9, 2008 Anyone use a sling swivel attached bipod for your rifle. I was thinking of buying one and want to know what people think is the best option considering price/quality/functionality. Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruffcountry Report post Posted September 9, 2008 I have used several different models all made by Harris . I like the longer models for hunting , the short ones work pretty good off a bench or table . Harris seems to be the most popular brand . Ive sometimes wondered if a monopod woudnt be almost as good in most hunting situations . In hurry up situations Ive used one leg of bipod to give me some support but better able to turn and follow game on the move . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted September 9, 2008 Love the Harris. They are very expensive but worth it. I really like the swivel models. Dad bought one of the cheaper ones a few years ago. If I recall correctly, it fell apart before the hunt was over and was a ROYAL PITA to get on the sling stud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaffer62 Report post Posted September 9, 2008 I was givin a harris bipod as a gift and the only thing I dont like about it is the height. I wish it was a little bit taller, but that has nothing to do with the construction on it.... those things rock! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bucks_N_Yotes Report post Posted September 10, 2008 +1 for harris! I have four of them, one bench rest, one solid, and two that are the swivel mounts which I think is a must have! I am 6'6 and I can sit on the ground and the scope is at the right hight so I am not hunched over the gun. I think its the 13.5 to 27" model. The swivel is great because you can be on rough uneven ground and still hold the gun level! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
awoltoday Report post Posted September 11, 2008 I love my Snipe Pod. I noticed that Outdoorsmans carries them now. I've heard that Sportsmans Warehouse carries them too. It is MUCH lighter than a Harris and I can easily swap it between different rifles and shotguns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wbyfireman Report post Posted September 15, 2008 I have the Harris, cnat remember the length but it is the tallest one they offer. It's tough to lay prone and set up correctly, but while shooting from a sitting position it is absolutly AWSOME. They are worth the price tag!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
