Bipods

Recommended Posts

I've had Harris bipods on my rifles since I started hunting coues a long time ago, and they are really good for the most part. Sometimes it's tough to get exactly level if you are on uneven ground - I've even tilted it up on shot on one leg which isn't ideal. On my latest youth hunt I took along a borrowed tri-clawps. If you can handle the extra weight, these things are amazingly stable. You can adjust to any height, get perfectly level and the rifle is balanced at the center point. I'll definitely be carrying one from now on.

 

I like to carry a shooting stick for quick stuff, keep the harris mounted for times when you have to get prone or sitting fast and the tri-clawps for long range shooting when you have time to really get set up for a 400+ yard shot.

I have used Harris for most of my life. I bought a rifle that had an Atlas on it, and I love it. I recently bought a Smith Enterprises Lightweight QD MIL STD 1913 Bipod just to try it out. It is beefy. The Harris' only weakness has been lack of panning. Now that isnt a problem, as long as you drop another 80 bucks. That being said, I avoid all cheap knock off brands. I have seen to many of them break.

I have a versa pod bipod on my rifles and love it. I can get extra bases that attach to my rifles and then just use the same legs for all of them. They tilt and are easily adjustable for the side hills. And you don't have to have your legs on all the time. I keep them in my pack and they click on real easily when needed.
