    Nice office Matt. Mean bipod set ups

      Cheer Dono. No a bad spot for some work. Although makes it a bit more complicated with wind and weather and me forgetting the specs and not being able to look the up online 🤦

    Hi Matt whats the specs on your xlr build? Looks nice. Folding stock option?

      It's a rem700SA element magnesium, love the chassis but didn't love the original carbon rear end so I've made my own rear carbon stock and folder which are more functional for me and half the weight(looking to sell these parts at some point)
      6.5prc, pierce titanium action, proof sendero lite and a few other accessories here and there. Can do a video at some point once I get these stock parts finalized for production.

    Hey Matt can we front load with this bipod

      @@Sg16- yes absolutely and it was designed to be used that way. You obviously won't be able to put as much in to it (especially with legs extended) compared to something significantly heavier which I guess is to be expected.

    Is that bottom leg 1 inch in diameter? Can it be removed from the upper part of the stick? If so I can see my self drilling a 7mm hole on the end and putting on a near zero titanium shovel on and securing it with a pin. If that bottom leg is sturdy enough handle a hole being drilled and being used as a shovel could be a sweet set! IF ANYONE KNOWS PLEASE GET BACK TO ME!!!

      @@Canned_Cans leg is 24.95mm (inch is 25.4mm) so close enough. There is already an 8.1mm in the end that is hidden. Not sure if it's placement is right though. I have a few comments. When you undo that joint there are a number of parts that come loose so watch out for that. Carbon tube isn't as durable as a wood handle particularly with high shock loads. I wonder if the hole though the carbon might flog out. Solution could be a 6inch reinforcement tube you slip inside and a little brass insert you push though the carbon before the pin to help protect the carbon and spread the load a little.

      @@MTNGear awesome thanks. I might also just consider replacing that bottom leg with a thicker walled leg (2mm) that should help give more strength. But first I have to order a mountain stick.

      @@Canned_Cans current wall thickness is 1.25mm fyi. It would certainly work and be straight forward to do. My comment though is that the extra weight down low will mean it doesn't swing so nice in hand when walking. That's a personal preference thing but clearly it will take more force/torque to get it swinging. I could be worth having the handle as a stand alone item so you can be rough on it without risking damaging the tube for the stick. Wouldn't be the end of the world you can still clamp it back in there but for the walk home it wouldn't be full length.

    Matt - a question ... Any plans to release a lightweight tripod for spotting scope or do you think the market is well covered with these?

    • @MTNGear
      @MTNGear  10 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, we are well down the track of this process. Not saying there aren't decent options out there already. Just not necessarily what I want out of a tripod so will be a different take.
