The fabulous Censhot – ticks all the boxes but its price will rule it out of contention for most shooters. Fox Firearms are the UK importer
made a few ounces lighter without compromising rigidity in any way. The downside for me is the bi-pod
I had a McQueen shoot coming up at the weekend so an ideal time to test the theory. Wow – it was great
The original Big Foot from Fito Force – still a great bi-pod, very solid and plenty of adjustment
is rather small. Mik Maksimovic, proprietor of Dolphin asked me what I thought of his bi-pod. “Excellent but a bit small.........” A week or so later, another bi-pod arrived – see pic. This one is definitely a contender and of course, it’s made in the UK.
However, let’s not dismiss the small Dolphin bi-pod too quickly, ‘effers are not the only shooters who use a bi-pod - could it find a place on a tactical rifle maybe? Duracoated in a nice drab green or black, it wouldn’t look out of place and being much superior to the Harris, could give a definite accuracy ‘edge’. Although it doesn’t fold like a Harris, it can be removed in seconds.
to use a decent bi-pod on my tactical rig - the Harris suddenly seems very wobbly after the Dolphin.
On a 338, the advantage would be even greater. So, in the space of twelve months we now have a good choice of F/TR bi-pods – in addition to the Sinclair, which still has a place providing you can stand the weight. Most bi-pods can be had in either an accessory-rail fixing or sling-stud fixing. If you are serious about your F/TR shooting, get an accessory-rail fitted – it gives a superior mounting. Price-wise, there’s not a lot to choose between them (except for the Censhot) but weight-wise:
