Default Bipod

I used to have a GRS stock but I have never used there Bipods.

I recently bought an Atlas BT 65 and its hands down the best bipod I have used. Its very stable, light weight and easy to use. The build quality is very good as well.

I had a Versa Pod and it was well built but I prefer the Atlas. I have used various Harris clones and they have been disappointing. The build quality is equal to there price. The features are not as useable as a Harris.

One thing is for sure there are tons of options. Choose Wisely

Cadex makes a a Falcon and Falcon light and they are made in Canada

How much is it by the way?

It sure looks nice. At that price you could buy two Atlas bipods. I was thinking of the Cadex when I bought because they are very nice but the Altas did everything the falcon light did for 30% less. (and it was lighter)

That being said I really like GRS stuff and have been very happy with my purchases of there rifle stocks.

Talk to Scott at Red Star Targets and see if he can you one in. (He is a local Alberta Dealer)

I need a bipod so will be following this thread.

Based on the prices, this will be a test of my resolve to buy North American over Asian products.

Picked up an Atlas 5H and an Arca rail and adaptor, like it a lot, put it on a TAC A1 with the M-lok fore end. Very versatile setup.

I have a h5 as well but I don't really like it. I prefer my TRG bipod. What Iam mostly interested in is the top mount available for grs, somewhat similar to Elite Iron bipods but at a much more reasonable price

Default Interesting

The High High end bipods like that elite iron and GRS have almost as wide a foot print as some of the F - Class ones.

I finally purchased the grs bipod. It is very well made I would say better quality than the H5. However it is very large and heavy I won't be using it on any of my hunting rifles.
