Hi all!!
I see all kinds of pellet rifle bipods online, but I would like to hear from you guys on what you think is the strongest and most sturdy model out there to buy.
I have a break barrel rifle, so I believe I will be needing one that clamps on the barrel.
All opinions appreciated.
Thanks! |

| I Have been told that with a hold sensative gun such as a springer does not work well with a bipod. I'm sure the others will have more indepth observations on this but it didn't work for me goo luck Howard |

the challenges offered by using a bi-pod on a break barrel are really not worth the effort IMO.
if you choose to, i would lean toward having a special, barrel mounted, clamped on, stud made for a versapod for quick removal during non-use times and during cocking operation.
a way i've done in the past that has worked well for me is to make a sandbag that may be carried, empty, in my pocket or fanny pack until ready for use, then filled with native soil and used as a sand bag front support. when finished...simply empty the bag and put back into your pocket/fanny pack. you may make them from any material and make them any size you choose. i made mine with velcro fastening at the mouth but fastening may be done any way you like best...by simple drawstring or a snap system. (if you're of the persuasion, you might use an old crown royal drawstring sack, too...    ) |

Good idea.
I fitted a sling stud mounted bipod to my G1, and it worked O.K., but not as accurate as a sandbag rest (with my hand under the fore end to get the lightest hold possible). It also required some minor surgery to allow the gun to be cocked. I use a $15.00 Ram Line plastic bipod (clamps on the barrel right in front of the breech block). It wobbles enough to let the gun rock, so it's fairly accurate. On the down side it adds another step each time you cock and reload, because it must be removed to cock the gun. Bipods are probably more suited to gas guns, rather than springers. |
