A-5 rail for atlas bipod help

[dpreston]

I've read the threads on installing the rails, but in all of those examples there was only a swivel stud involved.

Does anyone know how or what rail would work if I have a flush cup and a swivel stud on the bottom? ( If anyone knows the standard spacing between them that would be helpful)

Any insight between the B15 or B17 rail for this type of setup would be greatly appreciated.

You may need to drill a second sling stud hole to allow proper mounting. Is the flush cup toward the front or rear of the forend?

I'm fine with drilling another hole, I just don't know if that flush cup will get in the way. It's at the gunsmiths shop or I would measure it. I was thinking it would be the same measurement on someone elses A-5.

The swivel stud it in the front for a bipod and the flush cup is toward the butt of the rifle

I have an A5 Edge with a front stud and flush cup behind it. A very crude measurement with my daughter's ruler reads 2 7/8" from center to center. If you need a more precise measurement I'll get you one tomorrow.
