Hello Hide members,

I checked the search function on here and didn't see to many threads or posts on this topic. I recently purchased an Atlas Cal gen 2 bipod and want to mount it to my Bergara HMR pro in 6.5cm. I need to find a solid sling swivel to picatinny adapter. The two I've seen so far are the black hawk adapter and the Accu-Tac adapter. Both listed below. If anyone has any recommendations or suggestions it would be much appreciated!

I just ordered this https://www.midwayusa.com/product/3...irmation&utm_content=product-description-link from Midway. I have a short piece of rail with the same Atlas bipod mounted to it, I'm going mount the sling mount in front of the bipod.
Thats the opposite of what he is trying to do. He has sling studs and hes wanting a picatinny interface.

OP, measure thoe two sling studs you have to see how how far apart they are center to center. Then get a picatinny rail that can replace them. The sling studs will just screw out and should go back in their place or you can use cap head screws for appearances if that matters to you.

Both of these accushots provide a flush cup sling attachment point

The seekins provides a sling swivel attachment if one of their 2, 2.5 or 3" spacing rails will fit.

I reserve the right to be wrong but this looks like bergara uses the 4" rail
 
The BT17 4" adapter was a solid set up but I've since moved to an Area 419 arca rail with barricade stop. While the BT17 was on it was solid as a rock. Used it mostly for my Bipod, but also used it with an Anvil30 set up.

I've got a number of the BT units and they're great and very solid. I also have been pleasantly surprised at this inexpensive Caldwell solution. It's great for lighter guns with angled/traditional hunting forends as you can adjust the cant.
