Harris Bipods are tough to beat... Then there's the Atlas... length is a personal preference and what conditions you may be shooting in. I use a 6-9 Harris on my 260 Rem but it's mostly a bench gun or shooting Prone off the back of my pickup bed for long range gong.

But if I was going to get coyotes or something like that, I'd want something quite a bit longer, so I could be seated on a hill somewhere and still shoot over the tall grass and brush. I'm starting to realize I may need several Bipods in various lengths to cover all my bases... Then again I'm not a "Pro"... Just a country boy with a precision rifle and too much time on my hands... :laser:

The Tiptop Rifle Bipod S9N version is a huge upgrade over the harris at a 1/3 of the cost to get the same features on a Harris. I've been running mine hard for a few months now and am quite happy with it's ease of function. I only pull my harris out if I feel I need something with spiked feet on it.

+1 for the Peleton Tip Top bipod. I like them better than my Harris and half the cost.I own all three sizes .

In FTR many now use the Joy Pod ($$$) but often see the Sinclairs and Duplex.

The Sinclair with the adjustable Z axis is a nice compromise of price and stability.

Been running a Harris BRM-S for years in what is now called PRS and don't have a reason to change. Does everything I need for around $100.

I had a harris, I bought one of these: https://rifle-precision-system.com/shop-2.html#!/products/rps-bipod-mkii.html they are not cheap but is now a much more stable platform and handles recoil much better. It is virtually identical to the SAKO one and a bit cheaper. I will say tho that their customer service is very poor.

does it come with a regular sling stud mount? I like the design but need a different mount that what I see in the pictures..

I have been using a Harris BRM-S with a pod lock and a Sinclair GenII I really like the Sinclair with it's 18" foot print. The rifle precision appears to be a nice bipod it set's the bore a lot lower, gonna look into one of those myself.

They have both options. There 9 different Series covering pretty much all options to just the ones you need/prefer.

I reworked it a little and was able to swing the mount to the inside of the chassis so it sits much better now, couldn't find that pic earlier.....

Not a pro but I’m going to use a Mystic Precision MPOD. Very solid, clamps onto an Anschutz rail, light, moderately priced.

I have an Atlas PSR QD for general purpose bench or prone. Love the Atlas ! Pricey, but worth every penny and USA made ! For my Savage 12 FTR when I shoot midrange precision prone I have Flex bipod :

http://www.kreativ-solutions.com/flex-bipods.html . The Flex work's awesome, and not super expensive. No expert here, just a recreational amateur trying for better precision !

I have a Harris Lightweight 1A on my .260 Rem.

I bought the bipod in 1977 or so.

Still like new on the fourth rifle. I can't tell you how many times the legs have been cycled in that many years but it has to be in the five-digit range.

Quality is an investment.
