Re: Who all uses Pod Claws?
I just picked them up and have only a single range day. From the bench, I did not notice much difference between rubber Harris feet until I stabled down a piece of carpet, then the claws bit so I could load it up, rifle hop was significantly reduced.
Patch of asphalt. The claws bit well and I could find small divets and then dig in the claws into them that cut down on rifle hop.
Hard dirt, moved them around to dig in.
Loose rock, the rocks move around and while they are better than rubber feet, the shifting rocks are still a concern.
My concern is, they increase the bipod height quite a bit and it was hard for me to get low in prone with the extra height. I am sure it is something I can overcome with time on the trigger.
My claws kept tipping up on their sides when I moved them around trying to load them, very annoying. I asked Cheese and he told me to tighten up the claws on the legs, lock the leg screws, I should see a noticeable difference but have yet to get out and see, way too hot here to go shooting.
And yes, get the cover, just one day I was happy I did.
