Excellent bipodI purchased this bipod and mounted it to my Remington 770, 30.06 with the molded fixed stud out of the factory. PLEASE do not drill holes in your rifle unnecessarily. It does not need a revolving stud unless you want a revolving platform. I have read so many articles on bipods that have said how to modify your rifle to attach a bipod, requiring drilling holes, filling the stock with all sorts of things. My point is this, take your rifle stock into the sporting store you regularly shop in. Tell a store assistant that you need them with you to mount a particular bipod or bipods because you do not want to walk out of there with the wrong one. I did this at Bass pro in Anchorage. They want you to purchase anything in their store. Most of the bipods come in re-sealable bags. Harris bipods, Caldwell bipods, you choose what you need and what fits. If you need to purchase additional items, Picatinny rails or other hardware then do it, but, take your rifle stock in the store. You won’t regret it. Hope this was helpful and God Bless.

GarbageBought it yesterday, installed on my Christensen Arms in my house, bipod fell off as son as I played around with it on my living room floor. Tried several more times, thinking I was doing something wrong. Nope, it's a piece of useless garbage that's going back to store. What a waste of time.

Does a good jobGood rifle bipod especially for someone looking for good value in their gear. When it's shouldered during hiking or walking while hunting it does have an edge that digs into your shoulder a little. Besides that it's a solid sturdy bipod. Have had mine for years.

Good bipod. Digs my shoulderOverall, this seems to be a good bipod. My only complaint is that when using it with a sling attached, the hinges and such dig badly into my shoulder blade. I'm looking into ways to pad it without impeding the mechanism. Otherwise, I'd recommend using this with rifles that have a separate sling swivel aft of the tripod swivel.

Low manufacturing standards damage brand new SakoStill kicking myself for buying a cheap bipod.
Using it to sight in my new Sako 85. Small steel burr on the mounting face stuck up past the pads and put a deep dent in the walnut stock.
Incredibly unimpressed to say the very least.
Filed it off when I got home, just wish I'd paid the extra for a better quality bipod instead of damaging my brand new rifle. Or at least noticed it before I mounted the thing.

Easy install; easy operationBought these bipods after not being able to get a good rest while hunting in a burned area and missing a 4-pt mule deer buck. The bipod is very easy to use, my test shots at the range were quick and accurate. And, my first hunting opportunity with them was a successful shot that I had to make quickly on an 8-pt whitetail buck. I had to quickly move positions and readjust the bipod leg length on one side due to uneven ground and was able to do this in a matter of seconds and make the shot.

Don't take it huntingTook this out on a couple trips and ended up turning my rifle into a tent peg because it fell off completely. Figured it was my mistake, so I came home, re-mounted very carefully, re-zeroed after the drop and it happened again while hunting. Shame on me.
Will be investing in something with a better design because this just doesn't work out in the bush.
Thank you for your question!
This bipod requires a sling swivel stud to mount on your rifle, so it won't natively be compatible with standard MSR-style picatinny rails. However, if you want this or a similar bipod, I would suggest purchasing the Caldwell Bipod Adapter for Picatinny Rails as well (our SKU 1905119): essentially this is a rail-mounted swivel stud, which would then attach to the bipod.
I hope this information helps!

how does this bipod mount to the rifle?
Asked by: bsorad
It uses a clamp system to attach to the sling swivel stud found on most rifles. It is very sturdy and takes seconds to remove and attach. It also has a slot so that the bipod and a sling can be used at the same time.

Can you add a sling to this?
If I get this it will be using my sling stud. I really like having a sling so I was wondering if there was a place to mount a sling on the bipod like I've seen on other bipods.
Asked by: TastierOak
Yes you can use a sling with the bipod attached still.

Plan on using out of a deer blind
Has anyone used these out of a deer blind? Also, any problems with installing one on a Cooper 243?
Thank you
Asked by: LAV1
They require a front sling stud to mount onto the front of the forend.
In a blind the legs might not extend long enough to prop you above the window, so you may need a box or table to jack it up.
Excellent for prone shots, longer legs for sitting or squatting.

will this work with a pump action rifle?
Asked by: redneckhuntr
The XLA attaches to the forend of the rifle by means of the front sling swivel stud. The bipod incorporates an alternative sling attachment stud.

Will this fit on my Marlin Model 795 22Lr?
Asked by: ZachZach11
As long as your rifle has sling swivel studs on it you should be able to use this bipod.

Will this bipod fit on a new Ruger mini14?
Asked by: thor86
If you have a DOWNWARD pointing sling stud on your foregrip, then YES.
It will not fit a FORWARD facing sling stud (like on shotguns)
