    Knowing this bloke, he is in need of something that can handle a bit of rough treatment, the MTN gear bipod looks like a win (any rough buggers had any issues?)

    Another vote for MTN - mountain bipod. Love it.

    To qualify my review though I've only used that and harris bipods.

    + 1 for MTN mountain bipod. Really rate it, used it lots shooting steel out to 700 and it’s very solid. And it’s even better in awkward positions while out hunting.

    The only thing that sucks balls about the backcountry one at least is it's actually too high on its lowest setting if you're shooting off a bench. Hunting situations it's fine

    Really depends what you want.

    I like the mtn as well and use it regularly. For my purposes I am very happy with it and carry it on every hunt...

    due to low weight and versatility its very good for hunting purposes.

    As for stability and robustness, due to its construction (i.e. focus on light-weight) it is relatively wobbly. And I managed to break mine (they are not the most robust on the world) However MTN sorted me out and fixed it free of charge.

    An alternative worth considering would be the blacklanz bipods (never used one, cant say anything about it myself).

    I use a backlanz knotched leg and it’s mint. The MTN gets rave reviews but i’ve been fully satisfied with the backlanz so never had the need to change over. The backlanz with slide lock legs was a bit of a prick to use but going to the spring loaded knotched legs was waaay better.
