Lightweight Bipod

I prefer to run a sling with my rifle for when i need both hands accessible in steep country especially on stalks. Because of this I simply removed the swivel stud on my rifle and used the classic rifle adapter. It is .4oz more than the gunsmith adapter and didn't require drilling into my carbon stock.
Ok great. The problem I'm having is that I have the QD cups my stock and front pic rail. To do the classic adapter I'd have to remove that front rail and I dont have a standard sling stud on the butt of the stock.
 
The new Tricer RP looks like it's going to fit all the requirements. First order batches have started shipping, I expect we'll start seeing reviews any day now
 
I went Gunwerks and like it a lot. If I need more height than that, I'm pulling out my carbon tripod with ball head. I'm mostly hunting with a family member so it's no big deal to carry it. Both work with a Pic rail so it's a perfect setup for me.
 
14.25oz...
Nothing beats the MTN Gear Mountain Bipod at 5.7oz. It is remarkable.
Yes, totally lighter options, but twice the height on the Tricer vs the mtn (30" vs 15"). In the scrubby, steep country I hunt, prone shots almost never present themselves. And this allows me to ditch the tripod when I don't need to bring big glass.

I like it.
 
For steep terrain many of these are too short…. I have a mtn.. nice & light, wish it had different feet, and a longer pull.
I’d take the mdt triple with the more weight and better feet in steep.

I have found no issues while running the Spartan. Its lightweight and easy to quickly attach and detach. The rubber feet and carbide tips make it great for varying terrain which you will likely run into in Alaska sheep country. The carbide tips bite well into lichen covered or wet rock for a solid connection. I got used to having it in a quick access sleeve (https://www.redkettle.co/products/s...nBBJSzqGjCZJ2_AcT6no-8RhRXABdazZ8_zsA8ajSEX6o) on my bino harness for easy access. Spartan sells one directly on their site as well. This erased any stress of not having it stowed on the rifle. If I am without my bino pack on stalk, something is seriously wrong... The bipod cants and traverses easily as well with simple spring assisted legs for height adjustment.

It’s still too short for steep country
