Bipod Poll - Thunder Beast, Atlas, Harris or other?

[mvrk28]

As I have a new rifle coming in the next month or so, I'm starting to think about the other things I have to buy for it. Looking at bipods and I'm torn.

I'm not concerned about costs, if I am going to pay for something I want to make sure it is a quality product that will serve me for many years, so exclude cost as a factor. Just on quality alone, which would you pick?

I've been using a Hatch Outwest the last couple years and have really liked it.

I have an Atlas that I really like. I have the tall one, as the shorty is just to low for me.
The other one I would like to try out is the Spartan Javelin.

I use a Spartan Javelin...ran the mil rail connector on my elk, mule deer and antelope hunts this yr work great..wasnt a fan of that adapter catches on everything...ordered a gunsmith adapter as soon as I got home came yesterday will install this weekend...I have the 6" legs and the 24" legs...

I have an Atlas and a couple Harris. I definitely shot better off of the atlas. I like the spring loaded legs on the Harris better.

Rugged Ridge, Modular Evolution or Atlas Cal. Probably in that order.

Spartan is turning out to be our go to. light and compact

It’s hard to beat the quality of the Spartan line. I am using the Valhalla bipod. I really like it and have found it to be of great quality.

Spartan Valhalla Bipod Review ***Updated 1/13/21***

I have had the fortune of being able to review the newest bipod by Spartan Precision, the Valhalla bipod that has not yet been released. The bipod can be seen here https://javelinbipod.com/products/valhalla-bipod. I have had the bipod for a few weeks now and have managed some limited range time...

Iv used the spartan, a few Harris with all the doo dads and now have an atlas cal long.

The spartan was a nice bipod but I didn’t like that it wasn’t always attached.
The Harris is okay cheap and deploys quick. I ended up sticking a boat load of money into it with feet, picatinny clamp and pod lock. Still have a short one that I use for range work.

I prefer the cal though. It’s 45* leg notch along with the long legs is great for in the field. I can get it pretty tall and also very low. The 45 notch makes it more versatile in the field imo. Helps too that’s it’s easy on/off and very sturdy.
I’d like to replace my short Harris with a short cal or TBAC eventually. Mainly for range work as I prefer the tall in the field. Part of the reason I didn’t choose the TBAC to begin with, no tall model and requires extensions

I went thru this exercise earlier this year. Decided to try the Magpul bipod. Worked out pretty well and does what I need in a hunting bipod. Wish it was a little lighter, but do like having tilt and pan with it.

I've had spartans and wanted to love them but I hate the adapter, I hate that they just arent stable also.

Now its atlas all the way, I put a pic rail on a few of my rifles, the atlas can be used on all of them.

Hatch outwest for me. The various 6-9" bipods just aren't tall enough for most real world hunting conditions.

 

[justinspicher]

Using the MagPul bipod as well. So far so good.

For hunting, I don't think it gets better than the Hatch Outwest.

Good news- the Valhalla bipod is back in stock and ready to ship. Both M-Lok and Picatinny versions are available.
