[QUOTE="Sanford, post: 2376658, member: 27733"] I thought I'd see how I liked a bipod on my LR-308 so bought a Blackhawk (similar to Harris except for the price) that I saw at Wal-Mart on the theory that I could easily return it if I didn't like it. It's been just fine from the bench and doesn't add so much weight as to make shooting offhand any more difficult.
