Swarovski1 Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 Is there a demo one I can try out.you don't buy a car before test driving ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breacher Posted August 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 I am happy to let you have a look and try mine if you happen to be at Bisley for the GR Championships later this month ? Failing that - a sort of sale or return ? Buy it, try it in the comfort of your home and send it back if not impressed ! I am putting one on the RBL match raffle table if you happen to be there ? I can also be found at all the forthcoming CSR winter league matches where I will be using a little 6.5-8 Phoenix Type B on my 12" BAR15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brillo Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 A mate of mine has one on his rifle, which similar to the set-up in the photo above. What is interesting is that the bipod fixing doesn't show in the scope image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gun Pimp Posted August 16, 2016 Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 Honestly - I wouldn't swap that bi-pod for any other. I liked it right off when I saw it but when I used it - wow - the perfect bi-pod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palo Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 I'm thinking of buying one with the spigot mount for my sako trg. Which height would I need ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breacher Posted August 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 I'm thinking of buying one with the spigot mount for my sako trg. Which height would I need ?

Xtrema Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Sorely tempted. How to smuggle it past 'her indoors' though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brown dog Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Gentleman, A few posts clipped. This is a thread about the Phoenix bipod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtrema Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Could someone convince me to buy Phoenix bipod? What are the advantages over the Atlas? Does it possess the same swivel and canting facility? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarovski1 Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 You can safely say you can trust the judgement of The Gun Pimps view on this bipod being used in the pendulum way.we've not had an opinion on the AI spigot style.it may not be as good.maybe somebody who has one can help us out on that.swaro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradders Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Could someone convince me to buy Phoenix bipod? What are the advantages over the Atlas? Does it possess the same swivel and canting facility? Nope, not me The only thing comparable to using a bipod is wearing a dress and heels to go to Halfords What size slingback do you wear?

1in9 Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 I do like the MG42 style end of barrel look! I'm curious, with it seemingly in scope line of sight what is the effect on the sight picture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breacher Posted August 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Could someone convince me to buy Phoenix bipod? What are the advantages over the Atlas? Does it possess the same swivel and canting facility? Wider footprint. Stronger. And the top mounted one requires far less input from the shooter to keep rifle vertical due to pendulum effect. Mount is NOT visible in my 8-32x56 NF scope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xtrema Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Xtrema - you could read my review in Target Shooter magazine www.targetshooter.co.uk Thanks for that. I'm guessing i would need to drill holes for a small picatinny rail in my GRS laminated stock to fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breacher Posted August 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Thanks for that. I'm guessing i would need to drill holes for a small picatinny rail in my GRS laminated stock to fit.

Xtrema Posted October 27, 2016 Report Share Posted October 27, 2016 I bought one of these a few weeks ago. It is an awesome bipod. Mine is in 'B' configuration and fits my AI stock with a spigot mount. It really is incredibly well made and extremely sturdy and stable. I'll get some pictures up of it soon in action at Bisley.
