UTGRecon 360 TL Bipod, 8"-12" Center Height, Picatinny

I thought I was going to be pleased, but then the realisation set in....There is the advertised 15degree of 'freedom' however this is on a ball joint that is not able to be fixed at all.... The leaver just does not do anything to fix the orientation, and is virtually impossible to move in the first place....Therefore leaning on the bipod while prone, with your shoulder, just tilts the whole assembly forward... Just does not do its job properly...This along with the fact that the everything is very stiff to move and the legs are not spring, so have to be pulled out to extend its a good try, but should be priced in the £20-£30 not at the top end of the cheap market....

I've been trying various bipods for a month or so, and found them to be disappointing, if not terrible. This product is not a clone, but it is made in China. It is designed and patented as a US product, but is, sadly, made in China. If you can, for the moment, accept that, and try it out, you will see an unusually solid and well-designed product. Their approach to the configuring of the pan and tilt functions are minimalist: one lever, which controls the tension on a large ball and socket joint. The legs have three positions: forward, 45 degrees, and down. There is, however, forward and back play built into the pan tilt mechanism. This can be annoying, until you get used to it. The lack of a back folding position is not a problem for me. Build quality, fit and finish all seem to be excellent. They do include a sling stud adaptor if you don't have a picatinny rail, but I haven't fiddled with that yet.All in all, if you can live with the simplicities, you will not be disappointed with the quality: and I am relieved that I don't have to return another bipod.

Unit is very good value. Sprung legs would be a good and significant upgrade. Some folks do complain about and don't like that feature though. If you are a tinkerer, it would not be hard to install springs into the legs to extend or retract as preferred.I am using the swivel mount adaptor. Direct to Picatinny mounting would be a more stable connection. If the unit came with direct to swivel mount, that would be better as well.The curve to the picatinny adaptor did not match my gun stock's flatter bottom. I used polyurethane to infill. Polyurethane cured into a very stable, perfectly molded shim.Great value! Especially if you are handy and enjoy tinkering.

Ich bewerte das überarbeitete Zweibein - die sogg. Variante B:Bei dieser Variante lässt sich der Verstellhebel für die Arretierung der Dreh- und Kippfunktion sehr leicht bedienen - also lösen und feststellen.Dadurch kann sehr einfach eine Feinjustierung vorgenommen werden. Die Beine können nach hinten und vorne eingeklappt werden, auch das finde ich sehr praktisch und flexibel. Die Höhenverstellung lässt sich auch einwandfrei bedienen - dass die Beine nicht unter einem Federdruck stehen stört mich nicht. Ich stelle ja alles auf dem Schießstand in Ruhe nur einmal ein, da kann ich auch die Beine herausziehen.Wenn alles justiert ist, hat das Gewehr einen festen Stand und es wackelt oder rutscht nichts. Das ZB ist gut verarbeitet, trotzdem relativ leicht und sieht an meiner H6 223 auch sehr wertig aus.Preis-Leistung ist somit völlig ok.Wenn ich Jäger wäre und keinen festen Boden oder Anschusstisch hätte, würde ich ev. das UTG Big Bore Doppelstativ wählen. Bei diesem sind die Füße breiter und auch justierbar.Also alles perfekt - ich kann das ZB jedem Schützen in meiner Kaliberklasse weiterempfehlen.

Stable, un peu de patience avec les mécanismes,c'est neuf, grande stabilité, petit bémol,le délais pour la réception

Il prodotto è veramente valido molto solido. Un appunto al venditore: avrei preferito imballo anonimo stile Amazon. Le diciture e il nastro dell'armeria non sono il massimo.
