Looking at getting a new bipod that can work on multiple rifles. What’s the hive say about this?
Ideally it works be easy to move between a 308 bolt action, 308 semi auto, and AR-15, and a 6.5 Creedmore bolt action if need. All but the 6.5 creed have M-lok at the 6 o clock position. The 6.5 creed has the standard sling swivel mount. |

Isn’t that what everybody does?
Bipods are expensive and you don’t always need one. |

Are you looking to save weight and does it have to be a bipod or will a tripod work? Your generally safe ith anything Bog Pod related. If weight isn't a factor than buy a Bog Pod Deathgrip and be done with it.

I lean towards Harris bipod’s but I have a few Caldwell knockoffs that I have used for several years that have impressed me for the price point. I have a Stoney Point tripod that I robbed the monopod off of that I carry all the time. I use it to steady my binoculars and range finder all the time. I even use it with my crossbow. My wife bought an Allen Tripod that she robbed the monopod off of. Boggy makes a good one also. I also have a tall three extension Harris bipod that I use for calling. Personally I don’t know how you’re going to get away with just one. They’re like rabbits they multiply. Good luck.

Harris is an easy choice. They move around easily. They’re inexpensive. They’ve been used in all kinds of environments. They’re easy to sell if you want to go in a different direction one day.

Most of my long guns have M-Lok rails so I just take my Magpul or Harris bi-pods and make my own QD versions.

I've been using one bipod for years. I put an ADM picatinny QD mount on a Harris notched and swivel bipod and use it on all my rifles.
All my gas guns have a picatinny section on the front-bottom of the rail. On my bolt guns I use a Badger Ordnance Bipod Accessory Rail. It replaces the sling stud and has a picatinny section for the bipod as well as a QD port for a sling.  Attached File |

I have and use Atlas PSRs, Harris, Magpul.
The PSRs are on my prone/long range rifles, Harris on 18-20" ARs, Magpul on the 22LRs. The PSR and Harris bipods are tough. I've beat on them pretty good. IMO, the PSR is the easiest to load consistently and are able to adjust to any shooting needs i have. The Harris bipods are tough, but they dont offer the flexibiity of the PSRs and they can "hop" if not loaded correctly. The Magpuls are fine, but they flex more.than the other two and that's why they're on 22 rifles. |

I use a larue QD on a Harris that floats between several rifles.
ETA: disregard you’d have to add pic sections to each. |

I just pick d up an atlas because my rifle was too heavy for a Harris.
It's an absolute tank. I kinda want to try it on the 20" 308. I love that slide mount posted above |

I bought one Atlas and I move it from rifle to rifle. Works great.

Harris on a sling swivel is still hard to beat for interchangeability.

You can buy mlok arca plates and universal ones. I do this and use the area 419 arca clamp on a Harris bipod and works great. If you would like to take it a step further RRS makes a clamp that works on both arcca and regular picatinny. This is what I’m leaning towards getting next. |

I like the Atlas bipods with a RRS ARCA/picatinny adapter. The clamp is great for a wide forearm (Matrix Pro chassis), but the knob version works for everything else (and is half the price as the clamp). It makes it super easy to swap between rifles.
 I do keep a few Harris BRM-s for hunting rifles/sling stud AR’s. |

I've put Arca sections on the bottom of my rifles and I just move an Atlas bipod around to the different rifles as needed.

A 5 slot picatinny section under the rails and a qd bipod. Done.
I have a magpul bipod with a adm qd. This setup is for the lightweight guns. I have a Warne bipod with a built in qd. That one goes under the ar10. |

I believe you can get the pic adapters directly from the OEM and then pop on/off the bipod as needed It's a heavy tank though. |

My solution was to just put a magpul sling stud on the mlok guns for use with the Harris. It's very lightweight and low profile. Much lighter than a qd rail plus a pic QD.
For quad rail guns, I have a midwest industries QD sling stud. If you don't have any quad rail, the previous solution is the cheapest and lightest. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ORZEQZY?tag=bravesoftwa04-20&linkCode=osi&th=1&psc=1&language=en_US |
