Manners EH1 vs the new Pro Hunter stock

[CMP70306]

Does anyone here use a ckyepod with their PH? I saw on another forum that the pic rail on the PH is rounded up front, preventing use of a bipod that slides onto the rail (rather than clamping on like an atlas). If that's the case, did you just grind down a bit of the rail?

Really liking the look of the PH, but may just go with an LRH and install a rail that will for sure work with my current bipod.

If you mean the MDT Ckyepod then yes I use one on mine but it is the thumb wheel model rather than the QD one so I just tighten it down without sliding it over the front.

Yes, I have the QD head on mine. MDT actually has the BTC head in stock (thumb wheel type with arca and pic compatible). Seems I could swap the bipod head and have no issues with the PH rail.

The PH is a pretty slick setup, just received mine a few weeks back from a January order. Lower stock is the CA Ridgeline OEM, ridiculous difference in shooter comfort.

Looks great! Is that the Tommy Bahama pattern?

The BTC head is what’s on mine and it works great though I primarily run the rifle with my RRS tripod on the ARCA mount.

GAP Swamp. I’m a sucker for earth tones, they just fit in everywhere.
