Thread: Warning A7 shooting off a bipod

just got my new pod spikes they were great they really griped in but this was the down side. I did read on US sites that people were using bedding compound to stop this happening but i hadn't got around to it. Could i fix this with bedding compound? Or do i need a new stock if i want to shoot from a bipod again

Buy a carbon stock for it and never give it another thought.

Send it to Beretta NZ and tell them to replace the damn thing.

PS. You just put me off ever buying an A7, I'll be sticking with my current 75's or possibly a new 85 now.

Reports from the states say beretta wont replace it cause its not designed to for a bipod just a sling

Whats the rifle like? the blot and barrel?

Get a walnut one

Rife is good as it shoots .4 when i do my bit

Prob with a7s there arnt many after market stocks didnt want to spend 1k on A mcmillan just yet. so will bedding compound fix it?

Send a pm to stug see if he can make them?

Another fine example of Beretta workmanship and customer service to fix a design flaw.

NOT!

I would use more than bedding compound, use another type of 2 pot resin and some carbon fibre cloth to reinforce the break.

Thanks dogmatix thats what i was after

One the guys just had one tahr shooting for 5days a took a thrashing its still going strong, . . . Bad luck?

Im off to try and shoot a Tahr now wish me luck.

good luck - an don't break yer rifle!!!!

Dont think bad luck im not the only one this has happened to if i were u tuiman2 i would be advising my clients with a7 to reinforce. Im not to stressed about it just means i have to shoot off my pack when i have only trained with a bipod so no long shots will have to get close
