New tricer bipod

I got mine. I'm not terribly impressed with the product being correctly adjusted and indexed for adjustment out of the box. No instructions, setup info, or guide is included; very on-brand for a Chinese-made product with lots of features from other manufacturers. Probably coming out of the same factory as everyone else's...
The weight checked out, the overall finish was good, and the adjustment range, once set, was very nice.
Now, the picatinny-to-stock adapter doesn't fit any of the eight different McMillan, Manners, or AGS stocks I tried. I've emailed and requested some info in hopes it's my ignorance. We will see. So far, I'd give this a solid C.
 
Pretty impressed with first impressions. Quality looks very impressive to me. I opted to use my own pic rail. Very easy to fine tune in the tightness of the pic rail clamp. Feels extremely solid doing dry firing out into my field from prone and seated. A little slop in the head but goes away with a little preload.

Just got mine, pic attachment worked perfect without adjustment. Didnt realize the pan and cant is from a ball head on top. Seems to work as advertised and for the money I think tricer has a winner. Time will tell how it stands up to field use but out of the box everything seems legit.
 
Pic adapter long legs with spikes comes in at 15.3 oz on my scale.

Short legs with pic rail and rubber feat came out to 11 oz

Rubber feat and spikes are .6 oz for the pair.
ARCA adapter and pic adapter both came in at 1.9 oz.

Seems that any setup you choose will be the same weight, just depends on legs. So either 15.3oz for the tall setup or 11oz for the short.

If you’re planning on packing the legs separately, the tall legs weigh in at 7.7oz. Forgot to weigh the short legs separately but the math should make them 4.3 ounces lighter. Mathing in public is hard so don’t take it as gospel.

Hopes this helps anyone counting ounces.

From others posts, the pic rail adapter is adjustable, correct? But without instructions, I could see how that would be an issue.
 
seems pretty decent with some dry fire on the NRL gun. Will need to get a lot more time behind it. The arca lever gets in the way when splayed out all the way. So far I’m pleased.

Happy with mine. The swivel adapter is impressive and I wasn’t expecting it. Weights on par with above posts.

There is a minor amount of forward and back wiggle in the leg pivot joint but I’ve had that in every bipod I’ve had and loading helps.

Overall I think it hits the mark.

I was maybe unclear, but the pic adaptor on the bipod itself was no issue. It was super easy to figure out. It's the pic to the sling stud.
 
Pics comparing to triple pull below. Same footprint & height at lowest setting, same height at legs in, and finally about 6.5” shorter at max height. For reference my triple pull is 2# 7oz, so 1.5# heavier.

Only thing I don’t love about it is the form factor when stowed/collapsed being below the barrel by quite a bit. I’m sure I’ll forget about it in use.

For hunting this seems like it checks the boxes. For NRL hunter I’ll have to compare speed on adjustments with the twist locks. So far my brain struggles a little with them but I’m sure some practice will help. The two twist locks next to each other are hard to grab individually due to being small compared to a tripod for example.

Last thought my ideal bipod wouldn’t have pan & a touch more tilt range. Happy to try it against the gunwerks bipod with some use.
