I have some inexpensive ones and was wondering who makes the best for the money? I probably shoot better with a bull bag than a bipod anyway.

Harris makes a decent bipod. I'm not much for the Chinese stuff.

I bought a Neewer n55c carbon tripod for less than a 100 bucks. It’s got the ball head on it and goes to 66"high. It works great so far with a crossbow.

Atlas bipod is very good
Harris is good and very durable.
There are others, but I have not been impressed with anything less expensive than a Harris. I have not used anything more expensive than the Atlas.
Also have a magpul. Also good.
Just my two cents.

Been using Harris for 30+ years and still think they’re very good.

I always use Harris. They've worked well for me for the past 30 years.

“For the money” isn’t much help as a parameter.

My fave is the 6-9" Harris with swivel base & notched legs. Hard to buy for under a hundred bucks.
Now, getting into my flame suit I'll mention the Chinese knock offs. My first was OK but had to re-attach the rubber where it met the stock. Decided to dedicate it to a gun & leave it. Have since bought more from the same Ebay seller & they've been upgraded. Large rubber pad & neoprene covered springs. Have worked well so far & they're consistent, having bought about 4 over the last 5-10 years. About 26 bucks shipped. Sold by JamesHudsonBay on EB.
Tried a Magpul, a bit too tall for me, not as user friendly as Harris, but all what you're used to. Atlas has some really inviting models. But +/- 300 bucks is out of my league for a bi-pod. YMMV.

I have Atlas, Harris & Magpul... I think they are all great for their prices. The magpul is the newest one and I haven't used it much yet, but so far so good.

Have many Harris bipods. Consider them to be darn near bulletproof. Have heard Atlas bipod are also very good, but don't own any.

Sasha and Abby: I get along very well Varmint, Predator and Big Game Hunting with the made in America - Harris line!
I have switched all my old ones to the new "swivel" models.
Have many of them from short to tall ones.
Best of luck with whichever you choose.

Just picked up an Accu-Tac and it is a quality bi-pod.
