Shooting Shed Bipod thingy

Thanks.

Sporting Services are advertising them for £259 and that looks to include the mount - but doesn't say if long or short leg.

Another vote for the fortmier

Am I right in thinking you need to buy a spigot adapter to mount the bipod to. What length would you recommend for the Ruger precision I intend to mount it on the top using the 12 o clock version. Should I go for the short the medium or the long version.

As has been said the long version, I've also used the fortmier at the 6 o,clock position mounted to a picatinny rail without buying any add ons,

I have ordered the over the top long version, of the Fortmier. I still think I need to order a spigot adapter but we will see what turns up. I have ordered it for next day delivery.
I have also ordered a short Anschutz rail to adapt in case I want to use the Sheds bipod on the Ruger.

They are delivering it to morrow. (Wednesday.) If it turns up that's pretty impressive. Once it arrives I will be able to determine whether I need to order a spigot or not.

It arrived to day it does not come with the mounting you have to buy it separately its about £75. So I need to order one of them. So that works out at roughly £345.00 which makes it approx £50 more than the Shooting Sheds offering.

A word of advice if you decide to invest in a Fortmier bipod make sure they have the mount in stock. I have just done a Google search and no one has the mount in stock. So I wont be using that any time soon.
I have taken to morrow off I have some stuff to do in the Shed while I am in there I will have a look at making an adaptor for the Shooting Sheds bipod.

I can get a mount for the Fortmier but I will have to order it from Germany. I have filed it in the bottom draw with all the other Gubings I thought were a good idea at the time. The bottom drawer must be worth a few bob by now.

Is that direct from Fortmeir? I could do with a second mount myself. Do you have a website?

I ended up ordering one from Holland from prooptics mainly because the site was in English ordering was straight forward and they accept paypal. There is a charge for using paypal but its a small charge.

This has turned into a very expensive bipod I hope its worth it. I need to order some M Lok rails so I can fit it.
