Thread: Which Carbon Bipod?

Yea I like my spartan which I carry in my daypack. Only use it for longer shots so usually have plenty of time to get set-up

Hey fellas. Thanks for the intel, I really appreciate it. What a great forum.

@CandiedGold I had a Harris on my Finnlight 2 but changed to a Backlanz. I like the design and it weighs next to nothing. Very easy to put on / off . I've purchased the leg extensions , but haven't needed to use them yet.
I got bored one day and changed out the fiberglass stock for a carbon one. Fair drop in weight once done.

@ando2506 that's a beautiful rifle mate, what calibre ?

@308mate cheers . 7mm Rem Mag

Thanks for sharing this @ando2506.

The Finnlight 2 is looking pretty sharp with the new Carbon stock. A couple of questions if you don't mind.
- Did you fit the Backlanz bracket to the original Finnlight Stock and if so did it make a mess of the gel-type foregrip?
- Also what is the make of the carbon stock you retro-fitted and how much weight did it drop off the rifle?

Cheers.

@CandiedGold PM'd you.

Feel free to have a look here ive done a video review on it

Great video @burtonator , they look awesome and NZ made as well , now I want one .....

Hey @burtonator

Thanks for sharing this great review. I haven't yet been able to physically see a Backlanz Bopod as the gunshops here in Nelson seem not to stock them. Your video was very helpful and I'm definitely leaning towards a Baccklanz as I want to carry the rifle with Bipod attached in the same way that I currently use my Harris. One question - is your Backlanz a Version 1 or version 2? I cant seem to find much info about the difference between the two versions.

Cheers.

Version one based on the vid. Watch the vid on there social media about the differences.

Have you thought about just getting a quick release for your Harris? No expensive cost then

There was a similar thread not long ago, and I believe mtngear is coming out with a titanium/carbon bipod soon. It may be worth waiting and looking at that?

I hear MTN won't be releasing their bipod anymore unless they can find another manufacturer. Apparently the design was virtually a copy of the CKYE pod concept. Cost of production was through the roof and it would never have been profitable
