Rifle bipod/tripod

[clintbailey]

I've seen both good and bad reviews about the Stoney Point rapid pivot bipods, but I do love mine for coyote hunting. They'll usually run about $40-50, and it's a quick detach bipod setup.

I've got a Primos trigger stick in bi pod form. I used it during rifle season and liked it. It adjusts rapidly and if you don't want to use then its not attached to the rifle.

I have been considering one of these. I have not seen too many "real" life reviews of them. I probably will just get one to try it out and see if I like it.

I consider them borderline-indispensable. Steady shot, and as you say, less movement before the shot.

Stoney point polecat bipod or tripod with adjustable legs. One of a small percentage of huntin gear selections that are designed to not just catch the hunters themselves.

I have a cheap telescoping monopod that I take coyote hunting. Sometimes I use it sometimes I don't. Just depends on the terrain and whatnot.

I have a the Primos Trigger stick bipod. works great. I like it for blind hunting. easily adjusts to keep the rifle just above the blind opening. strap keeps the rifle attached when you want it to.

I do suggest if you buy these buy the set that has three leg sections. I have the taller setup and its a bit tall when trying to store it or strap it to a pack when leaving the truck.

That's the key right there. If you're setup on a hill-top or at the edge of say a pond-dam, you're golden with a bench-rest bipod or a bean-bag rest.

If I'm moving around or out in the open, sometimes shooting from the kneeling position or using your sling is faster/better than using shooting-sticks/bipod/mono-pod.

If I'm dragging around a heavy rifle, I have to have a rest of some sort - sometimes a light-weight bean-bag is better than a bi-pod, sometimes just finding a stick to use or tree to rest your hand/barrel up against works.

If I'm using an AR or single-shot (i.e. something lightweight), I rarely even worry about a rest.

Thanks for the info IMHNTN. I will just use a monopod or better yet, what CM stated regarding using a stick in the wilderness. Those were some nice coyotes you got there. Also, I noticed you have an electronic caller. I am going to pick my Spitfire up from the post office right now. I am going to use it very soon.....I will let you know if I get one. Of course, there will be pics.

You are probably a better shot than me EZ Bake. I suck without a rest and hate shooting offhand. We will look for some good pics in the future Crag. I am sure it will come together for you soon. When you start telling people you like to call coyotes, doors will open. Most farmers hate coyotes.

I doubt that seriously man
