Got to looking at new bipods and the market for bipods is CRAZY! Lots of stuff coming from many different companies. Would love some real world reviews and comparisons from those who have tried one, a few, all of them...
I currently have a Spartan Javelin, a short Harris S-BRM and a Tall 1A2-H (maybe a 25"-- rarely used). Looking for something that might just take the place of having 3 different bipods and fill the gaps in capability. Looking for something with pic or arca attachment, great stability, relatively lightweight and a decent range of elevation, plus the ability to cant and articulate the legs individually. I do currently have a Slik 634 that is always in my pack but I don't love the idea of removing glass to mount my rifle but I already have options (Davros head, outdoorsmans 'v') potentially an ARCA.
Here's a far from complete list of what I've found---
Rugged Ridge Extreme Gen2-- I like the ability to add legs/height if going to a hunt where seated/kneeling is possible.
Atlas- the gold standard? Not many options to get tall, maybe the BT47?
MDT-- two good looking options-- the cheaper GRND-POD or the lightweight single pull CKYE? Not cheap at all but if they are bombproof and hunt worthy it could be worth it.
Gunwerks Elevate- awesome range of height, super light-- how is the recoil/tracking/durability?
TBAC Bipod- literally never heard of it until google, has leg extensions, format seems somewhat large, lots of pieces having to connect, etc
RokStedi-- Prone, S-Prone? Lots of adjustability, good height, light, could go taller version, but not crazy about the length of the legs and the width of the footprint.
What say you ROKSLIDE??
