huntsman Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Anyone have any experience with sinclairs f-class bipods? Are they available in the UK? If so any idea of cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6mmBR Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 I use one when shooting F/TR and they are excellent and very stable. I got mine from Sinclair direct at a cost of $199 which at the time on a exchange of $2 to the £ was good value. Now it is a bit different, but still worth the £ in my estimation.

foxing2night Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Spud has done a video review on you tube, worth a view as its an honest review Mark I have got a Henry rempel that i am thinking of selling, But it would be 290 pounds, these are about 450 pounds by the time you get them into the country????

Gun Pimp Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Huntsman, Try Osprey rifles - www.ospreyrifles.com - they usually have a couple in stock. Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gun Pimp Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Or better still, check out their new bi-pods from Spain - just in. Cheers Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch_egg Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 I just checked out the website Vince and couldn't find them. Can you add anything? I got a 6mmbr on route that could do with a nice bi pod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gun Pimp Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Go to www.armasadictos.com and you should see a pic. They look even better in the flesh - I've been having a play with one today. Opsrey have a couple in stock now. Stuart Anselm - prop. Osprey Rifles - used one to win the F CLass league shoot at Blair last weekend with a Savage-based 308 FTR and set a new record in the process.

Scotch_egg Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Vince, There are many pics of bi pods on that site. Shame I don't speak the lingo. However this one speaks to me. Can't think for a minute why...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gun Pimp Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Yup - that's the one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntsman Posted August 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Thanks all. Vince spoke to Stuart briefly last week mentioned the spanish bipod and that it was a little cheaper . So which is better ? the Sinclair or the "big foot". Would only like to buy this item once and haven't seen either in the flesh. thanks dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gun Pimp Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Having seen both and spoken to Stuart Anselm who has used both in competition, for me it's got to be the Big Foot. Cheers Vince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch_egg Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 I managed to have a look at the big foot on Sunday at the diggle fly shoot. I really like the cant feature. Easily adjustable and would be easier to use in the field than a Sinclair. However the model I saw was rail fit only. I need to speak with Stuart to check if there is a sling stud fitment.

Scotch_egg Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 It's about £135 ish depending on the exchange rate. Give Stuart a call. He a nice chap and will tell you all about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gun Pimp Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 Scotch Egg The sling-swivel fit is not the best - to get the best out of the Big Foot it would be far better to inlet your stock and install a short length of rail - Osprey often do this for customers.

1967spud Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 i found the Sinclair to be awesome the only down side is trying to get it through a sunroof in hurry when out at night. But for straight target work it does every thing it sez on the label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manitou210 Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 You might want to look at Star Shooter made in Canada I have used all models of sinlairs, center shot etc but Star is by far the best for out there today. about $450 cnd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
