I'm after a cheap second hand one to fit on my new scorpian t10
i hate seeing people using them bipods that clip onto the barrel, its like resting your barrel on a fence post! and the weight of your gun and you resting on it will bend the barrel ever so slightly and will knock your aim off!!.

Leave the barrel alone. Won't the claw fit around the res'??
Bite the bullet and drill the stock to accept the bipod. I wouldnt have one of those 'around the barrel' types.
i would say that a bipod is only really good if you are always shooting from a flat area with plenty of room, i peronally do not use them as i prefer to hunt in woods so they are not practical.
Alternative - without drilling the stock.

Fits to the stock swivel stud, as long as you can get one suitable for a sling (drilled). At first I was dubious about the tiny screw attachment but it clamps up nice and doesnt come loose. I'm using the Equaliser 2 from half kneel, half sit position (if you can imagine) to shoot.
My partners son has the same gun as me but with a Harris Bi-pod, its more solidly built but heavier and more 'agricultural', the Vanguard is light and quiet - and no twanging springs.

Always keep your barrel free floating with nothing at all touching it. "Drill the Stock"
They are particularly good for resting on drystone walls when unfolded...and i don't take them off for the woods as they have drystone around them too....really depends what and where you shoot.....ie Squirrels Pigeons and rats...generally not needed...Rabbits,..for me..essential if you like your stock.
Most shots are over walls and the folded bipod acts as a stock saver...and also a bit like a hamster.. for elbow on hip.. locked up sling method... freehand shooting....
....or at least it does with an S Type Rapid.
