Any advice to offer on this "style" bipod will be appreciated. Looking to upgrade a bit from the usual cheapo swivel stud and/or QD pic rail attachment Harris imitation bipods so common on Amazon (CV Life, Caldwell etc.) Specifically, the subject style is the multi-position style that locks the legs at multiple angles (45, 90, 135 degrees). Intention is to set legs at forward 45 degree position, such that the weight of rifle itself takes up whatever little slop there is (and there is always some slop). Thinking that may provide a significant amount of the bipod "preloading" all by itself, quite possibly as much as is needed for rimfires anyway. Seems reasonable, but have never heard much of any discussion of the pros and cons. I most often use a Protektor brand leather rabbit ear bag at the rear, always striving for straight back recoil; rifle typically rebounds from shoulder (very slightly) after each shot, to be pulled straight back into shoulder for next shot. Not fond of the springy slop in the imitation Harris types. In the habit of pulling on the bipod legs with off hand after each shot, to insure back to "hard stop" postion (towards shooter) prior to "preloading" for subsequent shot, because of that springy slop. Might could be I an just "doing it wrong". At any rate, currently playing with UTG Recon-A style and have an Atlas B10 ordered, to be mounted on bolt action rimfires (CZ, Tikka, Anschutz sporters, not true heavy bench rifles). Already do have a UTG Recon Flex M-LOK bipod on my Tikka T1X-KRG Bravo 17 hmr, but haven't as yet played with it much, though I do like the feel of it.
