Zetter Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 I have the vanguard B62 bipod sticks and find it spot on. I can use it for shooting from ambush i.e. sitting and can also carry it about and use it standing at full extension. Its robust (has been used as a priest on a couple of occasions) and quiet to set up. http://www.uttings.co.uk/p114823-vanguard-b62-quest-bipod-shooting-stick-4719856235776/#.VbfnKs_bJUY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbox Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 I have the hammond quad pod. very robust and steady, but eye-waveringly expensive imho... also i find that in the wind, the hight adjust holes whistle quite loudly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davyo Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Make your own telescopic tri sticks,mine cost me £10 to make and been using them for 3 yrs ish now and still going strong.Just look up Frenchieboy it's his design and they are perfect.

Davyo Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) Top lad, if you cut a bit off they will collapse down to about 30" and still give ample height when extended.Credit to Frenchieboy Boy,pity we don't see enough of him posting these days.look at his home made fox callers ( they work) Edited July 29, 2015 by Davyo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghosthunter Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Ive just ordered a Primos Trigger Stick Tripod (full length). Check the reviews.. Im impressed and it hasnt even turned up yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruster Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Ive just ordered a Primos Trigger Stick Tripod (full length). Check the reviews.. Im impressed and it hasnt even turned up yet I have got a set of these they are fantastic, extend in silence, adjust with the pull of a trigger and are steady to use, the 360 degree head swivel is great and they are easy to carry since it is basicly like carrying a walking stick. They were £99 on Amazon for the gen2 Jim Shockey edition and turned up the day after I ordered them Also one set does every rifle so really no need to have a seperate bipod for every gun effectively saving you money if you think about it I couldn't be more impressed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can leave the rifle on it like a bench rest and get comfy until something turns up. Lazy mans tool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladyjack Posted August 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 its t20 ibought,whats the differevce between that and nm800 mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davyo Posted August 2, 2015 Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 About £140 lol,never been a fan of the T Torches,they are ok for the price but simply no match for the NM800, I got shot of the T20's but everyone kept raving about the T50 so though for the price I'll give it a go.I will just stick a red led in and use it as a spotter.
