light weight bi pod


Recommended Posts

Whats a good bi pod , light weight & not too cheap or too expensive.

The bi pod I have on my 20 " HB is great , but kinda large & weighty , I picked it out to fit the target rifle type .

I want to put a bi pod on this 24" ,5.56 , I'm setting up for Coyote hunting in Ohio this year, but I would like something simpler, lighter .

I'm not a big user of bi pods as you can tell , but am seeing some specialized uses for them now a days .

I picked up a  4" rail to mount on the bottom of my FF hand guard , this hand guard has no provisions for mounting , I will have to align , drill & tap the holes .

I know a lot use Harris , I have seen them ,but never played with one , guess its time to start.

I got a good deal on a Weaver Tactical, half off at Sportsman's Warehouse.

It is a great bipod for $100!  Lightweight too.  Just go through it and locktight all the screws with blue.

Now, at full price of $199, I would be willing to look at all the other offerings out there.

SS, this will be my next one:

I've been running one of these for years now, originally for/on the .308 AR, and I "migrate" it to other rifles - the GG&G XDS Heavy Duty, at 18.5 oz.

One day in the future - I've been putting it off - I'll pick up the XDS standard bipod for a few of the 5.56 guns.  They just don't need the "heavy duty" stuff, and can easily work with a lighter-duty bipod.  Here's the standard, and what I'd look at in your position right now, and it's pulling 13 oz:
