No pan or tilt or adjustability in legs? Might be all right off a bench where lightweight doesn't mean anýthing anyhow

Laugh away, but I have found these excellent, even compared to Harris.

Light and sturdy. Tilt and swivel.

I've had my first one for many years and its taken a thrashing.

Maybe if I was carrying an r93 brick I’d worry about a lightweight bipod. Don’t even own a quad let alone hunt with one

It didn't need an insert.

I like the look of both of those 'cheap' bits Bruce, are the legs twist lock? and what does that bipod actually weigh? (couldnt find that on the website)

The legs are twist lock. Weight is 285 grams (10oz).

When using the bipod I load it up by pushing forward so that my technique is consistent, but the legs and components have very little give or looseness. Build tolerances are very good. The swivel is limited but adequate - maybe 30 degrees each side from centre.

One thing ya gota watch with a Neopod is that it doesn't fall off while pushing through the scrub, Know one fulla that spent hours trying to find his to no avail, it was the first time he took it hunting.

He's a tight wad anyway so maybe it was karma hahahaha

Had a play with 260AI today shooting gong at 600y. 5-5 with the Javelin and my fist lifting rear of stock.

Shouldn't of had a bipod fitted when in tight scrub anyway, there's enough bits to get caught up in shit let alone having a bipod hanging off it too. Expensive lesson by the sounds.

I've been having a go at this 'strange' concept with surprisingly good results.

Shot this dude at 507y off my pack last month.
