A friend and I purchased rifles together but I thought to buy a bipod for mine. I got the bipod just as scheduled and coincidentally one day before my trip to the range. On range day I was able to test the bipod out. With 180 grain .308 Winchester rounds the bipod held up to its function. The rubber on the feet grips very well, the springs helps to take some of the felt recoil off your shoulder. The notched legs are very nice because you simply lift the bipod how high you want/need it and press the release button on both legs. The legs then spring out to the nearest setting for the height. I did notice a few things that potential buyers should note.

1.) The bipod does not have padding. I have a synthetic stock so it doesn't matter but for someone with a wooden stock it could scratch the finish

2.) When shooting a hi-caliber rifle the screw eventually will get loose so a quick tightening is a super fast and easy fix. After 50 rounds of .308 is what did it. Not a deal-breaker at all for me

Overall it's a great bipod. I haven't owned a "Harris" brand bipod because I didn't have the budget for it so I can't compare but this bipod did everything I expected and that is why I gave it 5 stars. Also my friend who shot with my bipod first hand also ended up buying the same one. He recently used it and had the same reaction I did. Simply put, it works very well.

I have three Harris bipods and for the money this beats them hands down. The quality is on par with Harris and even feels a little steadier. I will be ordering more.

I use a Harris Bipod on my AR 20" H-Bar, but it is too large and heavy for my Savage Mark II .22LR. I was hesitant to try a "cheap" bipod, but was pleasantly surprised with the Caldwell. It seems well made, easily attached to swivel mount, is solid enough, but best of all, it's about 2/3 the weight of the Harris 9-13, so the .22LR is still well balanced when bipod is in the folded position. Very good quality for the price!

The Caldwell Bipod has met all of my expectations. It attaches to the sling swivel stud quick and tight. The springs hold tension well, keeping the legs up when not in use and extending with minor effort when needed. The added weight is of little consequence when considering the advantages this bipod offers. Besides the increased accuracy, the second best benefit of using a bipod in the field is its ability to protect the rifle/optics from the ground elements while hunting. At half the cost of other bipods on the market, this bipod has great value.

Looks, feels, and is built just like the Harris type bipods at 1/3 the price. Weighs only 11 oz Everything functions as it should, and I don't expect any issues with it. I did not choose the pivot type...I like a more solid rifle rest, and I like that I can adjust the legs for uneven ground. I like the quick disconnect option, so my rifle sits better in the case, and there's no stress on the bipod either. Allons !!

Well, I purchased this in the hopes that I could find a cheaper alternative to a harris (or alike) bipod.. Well.. I was disappointed.
The pros:
Inexpensive
Mounts to the Caldwell picatinny adapter well
The mounting point is curved to better fit a rifle
The mounting point has a foam/leather pad so marring wont take place once mounted.
The cons:
Very light weight, to the point that I feel it may break.. Better suited for a light use rifle or a .22
The legs and tension screw are a bit canted.. It feels level when shooting but the unit itself angles a bit.
The unit (when compact) make the rifle look off.. Almost stubby.. Which is more aesthetics than anything.
The legs are a rough design.. For full rapid extension the legs cannot be touching anything and for the most part must be facing towards the ground (with the path of gravity)
To retract the legs the system on the unit is quite rough and almost requires two hands.

I wouldn't buy another one.. But its a decent spare to have on hand for someone else or as a back up. Spend the extra money and get a shooters ridge or a harris.
