Bipods for Rifles

[ndrews_18--]

Hey everyone I got a H&R .204 Ultra varmint fluted with a skeleton stock and the forestock has a special sliding bipod mount. Im trying to find a bipod for use at the shooting range and that will hold up, but something that not over 100-120 bucks. It doesnt have to swivel or move just be adjustable from like maybe 6-9 or 6-13 inches. I looked at harris but there website isnt very good, I also have a H&R .308 survivor that I would like to put a bipod on but it doest have a bottom bipod slide just sling nut on end of it.

The only ones I have are Harris.

I have one one a contender pistol and one one a contender rifle. Both are barrel mounted with an ar-15 mount I believe. Had them for years never a problem with them. Email them make model and height and I bet they get you the options you are looking for.

Slightly off topic: do the cheapo bipods they sell at Walmart work well enough for a 22?

Harris makes great bipods that are well worth the money. I also have a Caldwell bipod that is similar to but less expensive than the Harris models. I put it on a .22 rifle and it has held up well also.

yes

i have a walmart special on a 260 and i cant tell the diffrence between is and my harris as far as stability. i will be upgrading to a swivel bipod eventually but for now the walmart works fine

I bought one of those cheapie 6-9" bipods you see on ebay for under $20. Expecting the worse, I have to say it has held up extremely well on my AR-15 and because of it's small size, it works very well at the range when shooting from tables, etc.. Purchased it over a year ago and still using it today. I will probably upgrade when it does finally wear out but for now it does the trick just fine.

I have two Shooters Ridge 6"-9" bipods. I paid $49.99 for them. They are a good bi-pod for the money and I highly recommend them. They attach to the sling swivel stud and have an attachment point for a sling.

The "cheapie" ones at Walmart will be just fine MOST of the time.

I suggest that if you have a high-recoiling and/or heavy rifle, they might not hold up long term...

But for most shooting applications, they're entirely serviceable.

Might not have the fit/finish of others, but big deal. Also might not have the adjustability or the range of motion. Again...big deal to most of us.

Harris Engineering all the way.

All of mine were $20 dollar cheaper than dirt specials that a trip to menards for hardware to attatch it worked perfectly. As long as they are heavy enough design for the caliber, they will work.
