Loved shooting this version of the Atlas, my new favorite
Question for the people that got theirs already, do you get a shipping notice or tracking sent to your email? Thanks
I didn't, the package just came one day.
Well, I’ll just hope for the best. I’m having issues with the local fedex delivery guy not delivering my packages. Maybe it’ll come ups.
Big thanks to customer service at BT / Accushot . They just updated my order
movements via email : via USPS it’s nearly a month for parcel to find its way
to Aus . At least USPS will ship ‘ firearm related ‘ items , we are having a lot
of problems with Fedex here in Aus , even with simple items like dies ....

Got ours in the mail this week, first one to land in Australia so they ARE coming @Clearlight mate.
I haven't shot off it yet, put it on the AT last night... It's SOLID, This is my first Atlas with non rotating feet so looking forward to that. The Pod-Loc is nice, doesn't get in the way and can be repositioned like on a Harris so easy to tension from any angle. In the box, stickers, a poker chip, catalogue and heaps of stuff... Very professional, extremely happy
Thanks Kasey and team!

Just an FYI for those running these on a Dovetail with the RRS mounts. I run it backwards (another thing the Harris can not do) so that the handle faces away from the shooter on the CAL. I know you think I wand to adjust the tension looking down a live barrel..
While I can still work the tension, the tension adjustment sticks where it should, so I don't have to fuss with it much. But the reason for this is to use the bipod as a front barricade/recoil reducing device. Put your Game changer down, deploy your bipod in front on it shoot as normal, but even if you need to semi-free recoil (not that you should), self-spotting is a breeze. Makes those wacky sideways behind the rifle positions work much better. Even without the Game Changer this works excellent.
The picture below isn't the CAL but it shows what I am talking about.. I'll see if I have any shoots in a match with the bipod down in front of the bag.

Edited to add-- wish I had more
Thanks Kesey, Shot a lot of round already with it...Great product!

Sorry for the crude lines drawn on my phone, but can anyone with a CAL in hand measure this distance for me? I’m trying to figure out if there will be clearance for a new AIAT spigot mount I’m working on. I think a Harris with a Pod-Loc won’t work, but I’m hoping I’ll have the room for the CAL. Thanks!
Very limited range time today with the new Atlas , just some quick plinking with a Sako
Quad range 22 lr . Feels like a Hybrid between an LRA , and a Rolls Royce built Harris ,
except without the clang and ring from the springs on the ole Harris . Shot the best
5 Shot group ever at a 100 ever with tihis rifle , around 0.3 , with RWS Target Rifle .
Regretting not getting 2 ! Can’t wait to try it on the 6.5’s back to back with the V8 , and
it’s getting some time on the big Magnums next week . Off a hard surface , it’s more
consistent than a V8 so far . Not sure if that will be the same in the dirt , prone .

Guys, we are hammering these out and will be shipping a ton of them out starting today and moving forward.
Regarding checking shippments noted here and through PM's, I'll ask about them.

Now that I have some time with it, this is currently my favorite bipod from Atlas. It's fantastic.
So, when one of you guys either likes this better than your PSR, or you decide you liked your PSR......come find me. I’ll take either off your hands.
And it doesn’t even need a clamp. I have plenty of adm clamps laying around. ??

Absolutely. Practiced with mine a week ago and shot a match with it Sunday. It is a solid performer and super stable, especially with the Hawk Hill feet.
Those who want swivel or odd angles will be disappointed, but for solid shooting and wide stance, this one performs. I still may end up with it on my .338 LM for ELR, it's that solid. But this bipod has convinced me that it will not be my last Atlas.

Mine showed up today, pretty stoked. They are solid and lock up very tight. Can't wait to get them to the range.
looks like the rats adapter fits up nicely!Mine showed up today, pretty stoked. They are solid and lock up very tight. Can't wait to get them to the range.
I've had mine for about a month and have used it several times. As to your question on ease of adjusting the tension from shooting position, I have found it to not be quite as easy to adjust as a Harris with lever installed. The amount of rotation required to go from "loose" to full "lock" is very small on the CAL. The Harris seems to have quite a bit more range of tension with a longer travel of the tension lever. With the CAL, when I have mine tightened enough to not move during firing and cycling the bolt, it's difficult to loosen the tension in the firing position. I really like the stability of the CAL and the wider stance, but I wish the tension adjust was more gradual, with a larger range from loose to locked.
