One thing I don’t like is having a bipod stuck on the end of my rifle. That’s a great way to ruin the rifle for field shooting positions other than prone. They also tend to be very limited in usefulness.
I bought this one for a specific use; coyotes in very low light on an 11 lb. rifle. It will be used mostly in a sitting position (25"). The 12" setting will work well off the bench at the public range I use. Their seats are high in relation to the bench heights and it gets to be a PIA bringing my own stool or piling 4 of their sandbags. Typical rests like Caldwell's are way too low.
I never use one on a hunting rig I'll be toting around. Sling for offhand, branch/log, pack, etc. if there's time to use a rest.
