I am looking at getting a Harris S-BRM Bipod Leg Notch Sling Swivel Stud Mount 6" to 9" Black and want to see if anyone has suggestions for a comparable substitute for a lower price. Thanks

I have the non swivel version on my Rem 700 Varmint .223 and if its sturdy enough for that 26in heavy barrel monster, it will take any abuse it will see on the 10/22. I did some online research, mostly forums and everyone recommended the Harris, one of the best bipods available. You could get the non swivel version for about 80.

I have that exact tripod. It is well made and easy to adjust.

I also have this one:

Amazon.com: UTG Tactical OP Bipod - Tactical/Sniper Profile Adjustable Height: Sports & Outdoors

The UTG is very serviceable, but not quite as easy to adjust. For normal occasional use, I don't think it will fall apart. For approx 1/3 the price - not a bad deal at all.
I have used it with an AR-15 as well as several .22 rifles.

I have tried several brands Trying to save a few bucks. Every time I gave the off brand away and bought a Harris.
Harris bipods are money well spent

Buying junk is usually more expensive than buying quality the first time. After 60 years I know, trust me.

 

[MrSchibbles]

Yeah that is what I figured but always worth the time to check. Thanks

Caldwell or Shooters Ridge bipods are pretty good and about half the cost as a Harris. Never had any problems with mine other than miner surface rust, given i am in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

Walmart is now selling Blackhawk 6-9 bipods that pivot, for $40. They, also, come with a pivot lock, an extra $30 on a Harris.

I go me one:

You know, I wanted to get a Harris bipod pretty bad a few months. Almost bought one on a couple of occasions. I eventually had the realization that I could easily have a triangular stand out of some thin steel round-stock. It would weight much less and not have to be toted around on the gun continuously. Wont cost 50-90 bucks either.

I have yet to make one, but I may in a few weeks if I get bored enough. Bipods are kind of the tactical thing, which makes ~me~ think it should always be there. I couldn't justify the weight that far forward on the gun. Just my view on it. But, of course, it's not near as big of a deal on a lighter rimfire firearm.

I tried a cheaper one and now have two Harris's. You get what you pay for. The cheap one I returned because it was...well... cheap. Mounting and legs weren't secure enough to do anything but frustrate me. Harris makes quality products.

I would highly recommend the NC StarPrecision grade bipeds! They are almost identical to Harris bipods, but there only thirty dollars. You can Search " bipods"
on amazon and you will find them.

Get the swivel model. Worth the extra $. While you at it get the alpha bravo swivel lock formthe bipod. Kick ass combo.

Harris makes a good bipod never tried another brand I have two sizes and the swivel works great ..
