Selected User Reviews For Caldwell XLA Pivot Bipod with Adjustable Notched Legs and Slim Folding Design for Easy Transport, Rifle Stability, and Target Shooting
Bipods have been the topic of a lot of articles recently, and I began to wonder if I really had to spend $100+ to get one Caldwell is in excellent shape, and I'm happy to report that. I need it to do exactly what I want it to The apparatus is sturdy, and the push-button action is smooth The button has a spring-loaded mechanism These loaded legs are impressive at this price point. As far as I am concerned, I do not see the point of spending This product is far superior to anything else I've ever seen. As it is, this works as needed, and its pivot feature even allows you to reposition the gun without resetting the stand. *One It was a little difficult to decide on which size to get, but I'm glad I got A 13-inch diameter. In spite of the measurements, the height of the bipod corresponds to the height from which you are shooting and not how high your gun will be from the ground. As soon as the legs are swung down, the bipod loses height because they are vertical instead of diagonal. The length of my rifle from the shooting surface to the bottom of the barrel is between 8 and 12 inches. To measure the barrel itself, it must be 9 to 13 inches long. Be sure to keep this It is a good thing that I didn't make it any smaller otherwise she would only be able to use it lying prone, and even then keep her chin on It's okay for me to use If I lay prone (with my elbows propped up) or if I shoot from a bench rest, I am at 13.
A 308 is appropriate for casual target shooting at the range as well as The maker did a good job, because it holds up to the kick of the. The fact that you can connect your sling to the bottom of this bipod is convenient, and the set-up is easy To connect the connector to your rifle's sling stud, loosen the thumb screw, align it with the stud with your rifle, and tighten it. My experience with several outings has convinced me that casual range shooters and hunters will enjoy it out to about 100 yards. However, if you want to mount it permanently, you should opt for a more durable Thanks for reading my review and I look forward to your feedback.

Due to the round tubes falling off my AT, I was almost going to return it. It is very sturdy and keeps its place when installed on the CVLife bipod by using a picattiny rail adapter that I had. A rifle with a rail on the bottom was swapped out for the rifle. Take it down one at a time. For the tilt knob, I had to use pliers to tighten it so that it is no longer The second strike has been struck. Even though I made it work, I still need to make improvements. The only way I would recommend this bipod is if you have a rail adaptor to mount it.
I bought the Caldwell as a result. I found it to be easy to install, if a bit fussy to use and simple to operate. As a result, it provides a very stable platform for nighttime rat sniping - it is easy to deploy and retract its legs. Rather than shooting offhand while I rest my elbow on a picnic table, this was far more advantageous. There is one issue I have with the swivel that allows the gun to rotate on axis to compensate for uneven ground. I can't get as much tension as I like on the swivel. It is, however, an excellent value, despite some minor drawbacks.
A bipod can be improved to some extent, but it's okay overall. They are not made of rubber, which should be a soft material. This is a very bad design, since the material is hard plastic. It is nearly impossible to preload this bipod, pressing forward causes it to slide forward. An adjustment knob for adjusting the cant of the rifle became stuck and required the use of pliers to disengage it. In finger tight tension the rifle is stable, although it will still move side to side with some force. Despite this, I am not crazy about how little force is necessary to move the rifle around. The leg operation is easy and the bipod feels solid and stable when deployed. In order to retract the legs that have been spring loaded outward, the legs must be pressed Despite its weight, the sling stud mount is solid. It does not wobble or rattle at all. In my opinion, there is nothing to be impressed or disappointed about.
There is no comparison to Harris in terms of quality. There are some Harris products in my collection along with some others. It will do the trick, but you can clearly see that the materials are less expensive. Besides not being parkerized, the finish is painted, the feet are made of harder rubber for a cheaper price, and the springs do not have the same tension as the parkerized version. This works just as well as the Harris pod lock and I have a KMW pod lock on it. Obviously, it is just going on a 22-caliber, so it will work just fine. However, if you are in the field for a long time, you might want to consider the Harris as an option.
It's now been a few days since I received this Caldwell bipod I ordered from Amazon (fast this time). Since this is going on a rifle that will be used mostly on the range bench, I thought I'd save a few dollars by buying the Caldwell unit instead of a Yeah, that's right. In that case. It is glaring how different the two are in quality. Some of my Harris bipods have been with me for over two decades. It will be a surprise if I receive a Summer from the Caldwell. At the age of 30, I suppose that is to be expected given that Harris costs 40% as much as other models. The cant mechanism on this Caldwell unit is a bit strange, with a rather flimsy sheet of plastic attached to it The spring has been The plastic hardware allows it to be nailed down, but that must be done manually. It doesn't feel stable and doesn't seem to inspire confidence either way. I use it to shoot at ranges most often. It's mounted on a rimfire gun. The length of time it lasts will be determined. How likely is it that I would purchase a second one? Not at all. In my next incarnation it will be all Harris, which I can thank my boys for after I'm gone.
