First I have heard of them, so no help, but thanks for bringing this company up… I want that bipod, and it will be my next.Any experience with mountain bipod?

I'd be curious how you like it in comparison to your Spartan.I have the mtngear bipod, but only limited experience with it so far. The level of adjustment that you get for the weight is insane. It does have play in it when not loaded, but does hold solid when loaded into. I plan to spend more time in the field with it on some hunts this year.
@mt100gr — Yes, you can keep it attached and folded forward under the barrel. It also detaches quickly, so you get the best of both worlds.
I just got the backcountry version of the bipod and have used it at the range. It’s sweet. I like it a lot more than the javelin it replaced. My only complaint right now is that it rattles a bit when it’s folded up and carrying the rifle. I’ve been playing around with keeping a rubber band around it near the attach point which seems to work to minimize rattling and still let’s you fold the legs down. I messaged Matt at mtn about the rattling and he said there is a way to tighten it up some and he’d walk me through it if I really wanted to do it.
I’ll likely be upgrading my stubai trekking axe to the mtn stick next year. It looks awesome but $$$.
As I've watching their content, I thought to myself that that thing must rattle. I hate rattling. Does the rubber band stay on once deployed?
The hatch weighs a lot more doesnt it?Has anyone compared these to the Hatch bipods?
Yes but the mtn bipod looks to have the adjustability of the hatch with the weight of the spartan. Curious if the adjustability is as good as the hatchThe hatch weighs a lot more doesnt it?
Very interested in this also. Sometimes lightweight leads to instability. The Hatch appears to be the most versatile but it comes at a weight penalty. That said, I would rather have the weight penalty for something more versatile, indestructible and that doesn’t rattle around on my rifle.Yes but the mtn bipod looks to have the adjustability of the hatch with the weight of the spartan.
