lancetkenyon Report post Posted November 16, 2016 Depends on the situation. Bench or prone? Harris 6-9" Hunting prone? Harris 6-9" or 9-12" Normal still hunting or spot & stalk? Harris 13-27". All swivelling models for sure. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CraigK Report post Posted November 16, 2016 I have the atlas with a 3" extension added to it. I like it a lot... but this past hunt of mine I missed a chance at a great buck due to not having enough extension. Grass was crazy tall and I was on a steep incline. I probably could have made it work somehow but my buddy was with me and was able to get a much better rest. He used a Harris 13-27. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hoss50 Report post Posted November 16, 2016 Harris 13-27" swivel for me. I used it on my elk hunt last year. Prone position on the 13" and it was perfect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rackhunter Report post Posted November 19, 2016 What lance said. I have all three Harris. I use the one I feel is gonna be the best for where I'm going. In a perfect world would be prone with the 6-9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
n2horns Report post Posted December 8, 2016 take a look at rokslide, they did a bipod review. I use the Atlas, but others are good like Bob Beck's Pod http://www.rokslide.com/gear/firearms/428-bipod-shootout-review Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trphyhntr Report post Posted December 8, 2016 I used a 6-9 with the swivel on it this year and it worked like a charm, was the cheapest one at sportsmans warehouse Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted December 8, 2016 I've never carried anything less than the 13-27" Harris, swivel model. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lancetkenyon Report post Posted December 8, 2016 I can add to this thread. After Taylor's elk hunt, I went to purchase another 13-27" swivel bipod. I was set on a Harris, but saved about 50% on a Caldwell. Got it home, opened it up, put it on a rifle, took it off, packaged it back up, went back to the store and returned it for the Harris. So I wasted about $10 in gas. The Caldwell sucks compared to the Harris. Super flimsy and not steady at all. You get what you pay for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CouesPursuit Report post Posted December 8, 2016 Coyotes hate the set up options and maneuverability of the Harris 13-27" as I can always find a way to get comfortable. The photo below was taken a couple evenings ago. The big male coming into the call got hung up on my far right side while I was prone on the left side of a creosote, quick switch over to the right and I was lucky to get to him quick. My favorite position is bipod legs extended sitting in the shade of tree with the stock nested in my shoulder while calling. Zero movement required until the trigger pull. My brother borrowed it on his deer hunt after having issues with the grass in the past. He bought the same bipod as soon as he got home from harvesting his deer this year.
