Atlas bipod question

[KSB209]

just got one and this is my first and only experience with them. Question is….is it supposed to wiggle a little? I have Harris bipods that wiggle less. The model is PSR (BT46-LW17). Anyone have experience with these? It's not a cheap so if it is not functioning correctly I want to return it. I just thought it would be a very snug fit on the rail and it is not

Atlas bipods do have a little bit of flex built into them so you can pre load a bit of pressure into the legs. That way, under recoil, they will flex back as opposed to bouncing off your shooting surface.

Thanks. There are no directions so I YouTubed it. You can adjust it. Silly me. I should have started with YouTube

Happens to the best of us. It'll snug up when you tighten the tensioning screw. They are great bipods!

We are all here to learn one way or another.

Great you figured it out. I had to do the same thing and adjust to other rifles as well when swapping it around.

Thanks guys. Sometimes I need to do more homework before I ask questions on this forum but I'm glad there are a lot of good guys willing to answer questions for a idiot like me
