Bi-Pod

MarineStud · 04-12-2005, 02:43 PM

I'm looking for a good Bi-Pod that can be adjusted from prone position height to sitting position. Any body have any suggestions on a good one

Try a harris bipod.

I'm with aborquez18

I have the Harris 9"-13", and it's great for pron, and sitting shots. I've taken A LOT of squirrels with it, and I've also beat'n the hell out of it. They're nice, but they around $100

Good luck

I've seen Harris brand bipods at Sportsman's Guide for far less than $100 , look in their Shooter's catalog . They might not have Harris right now , but they do have a selection of bipods right now for well under $100 .

hoyt 14. isn't a 13" height kind of low to use for sitting? I'm just wondering cause it seems like you would need something in the upper teens or lower 20's for a sitting position bipod

I have a 14" bipod, and you can only shoot it in seated position from the top of a ridge downward, and it's very uncomfortable at best. IMHO, you need at least 20" of bipod for seated shooting (unless you're really short, lol).

I found a harris bipod that ranges from 11-23 inches. so i think that will work for my needs or do you think 11" is to high for a prone position

i also had the same problem finding the right bi-pod. find something that is 11in off the ground and set the front of the stock on it. How does that feel. i found out that 11in works good for me. i can simpley throw the legs out and lay right down without adjusting them. If i need to get up out of that grass i can extend the legs out to 23in and is the perfect height for me. i would get one so that the shortest and longest settings are comfortable for you to shoot. i got mine from www.midwayusa.com
