Re: RND bipod
Dog town I'm also having some tubes made for windrunners guys to convert to the tube handguard. You would be able to put an RND bipod on them. Or a harris bipod or I had an adapter made to move your windrunner bipod out so you could use your existing bipod. You will also be able to add picitanny rails,etc. it will be a modular system. I will have to see what shop time adds up to to determine a price. You would also have to send me your barrel nut to have it turned to fit the tube.
The RND bipods will be 575.(ish)

Re: RND bipod
That is a 338 and the recoil is not bad being a semi auto.

Re: RND bipod
Am I the only one that is wondering how the hell that is a 575.00 bipod??? Can you splain us what is so special. Short of being a guidance system that is?

Re: RND bipod
Maybe it's the angle the picture was taken, but doesn't that mount obstruct the lower portion of your scope's field of view?

No, you definately aren't the only one wondering what the hell is up with the $575 price tag.
It's a <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="text-decoration: underline">BIPOD</span></span> for God's sake!
Harris 6-9" swivel bipod: $90
Accu-Shot Atlas: Clamp On Bipod: $220
RND bipod: $575?
I think that people will recognize the innovation of this bipod design. However, I doubt that more than a well off <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="text-decoration: underline">few</span></span> will see the $575 worth of innovation in moving the bipod mount from the bottom rail to the top rail.
People are going to vote with their wallets "Yah" or "Nay".
Me pay $575 for a bipod?
Naw! I'm going to dig out that old spare bipod, a left over ARMS mount, my dremel tool and some JP Weld. The end result might not look as nice, but the parts are already paid for. And it's a heck of a lot less expensive way to go!
Sorry to see a good idea trip over itself right out of the gate.

Re: RND bipod
Harris-90$
accu-220$
parkerhale 300+$
EDM 450$ +175 if modified. http://www.edmarms.com/price.htm
RND 575$
Sako 610$ http://www.ableammo.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=106731
becker-dean-cheytac 750$
The RND gives the same performance as the cheytac at a lower price. It just depends on your gun and expectations. I own 7 or the harris bipods but I didn't put one on my cheytac.
ranger1183 if he could make them for less he would. There is allot of machining and some parts have to be sent off to be tig welded, annodized, etc. They are expensive to make.

Re: RND bipod
Are you sure on that Parker Hale price...in the UK they retail around £175.00 (approx $240 - $245). The AI version is around £130.00.
Surely the US price can't be nearly double??

Re: RND bipod
I could be wrong. I thought I had seen them for that price before.
I just looked them up it looks like 300-350 thanks..... I adjusted my post above.

Re: RND bipod
No problem. The new VersaPod #51 All Steel PH/AI "look alike" is around $175.00
On the other hand I've heard the Sako TRG Bipod is around $500 - $600......
