Bipod/tripod/sticks advice

#1 Post by Si-Ken »

Hey guys,

I'm looking into buying a new bipod and I have the below in mind as the bipod that i have at the moment is alright but its attached to the rifle and doesn't swivel and every time i put the legs up im sick of trapping my fingers wallhead

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Primos-Trigger ... tick+gen+3

Does anyone use this product or an equivalent cheaper version?

Thanks
Simon

I bought a Manfrotto 055 tripod & ball head, fitted an Arca-Swiss rail to my rifles
My mate uses the same tripod but with the 2x rifle rest head sold by those of the trigger sticks

Very stable platform !

If you need a bi-pod, buy a Harris Bi-pod. You won’t be disappointed, I first bought a Deben but it fell to pieces after 2 weeks.
