Which bipod?

Hi folks, thinking of adding a dedicated bipod to my 18" 308. Wondering which unit do you folks like the best, weight being the deciding factor.
Thanks.

I use this: http://www.larue.com/harris-bipod-brm-s-and-lt706-qd-swivel-mount-combo

I'm very pleased with it. I'm not sure if it's the lightest out there, but the LaRue version is a modified Harris...they basically removed some of the unnecessary bulk and added their own QD mount.

I have several Harris and one atlas. There is no doubt the atlas is a better bipod. The Harris still works for hunting and general shooting, but if you are looking for accuracy than the atlas is the way to go.

any of them have a Pan head?

Falkor makes a nice one. Pricey though.

Harris Bipod and LaRue QD mount works for my back porch shooter hard to beat at $185

Thanks for the info, lotsa good choices...

I have only used a Harris and it's good no issues have heard good things about atlas. Also owned a champion and it fell apart after 2 years.

I used a UTG pro tactical with pan for a while, switched to Harris S. Both work well, but the pan is nice especially when you move it back a little bit behind the gas block, no need to reposition when in prone as much as having it way out there.

I have several, the one I prefer is the Harris S-BRM, I wouldn't get another one without the swivel to level the gun without having to adjust or shim the legs, even on the bench, with just the difference in the boards is enough to annoy me. No doubt some of the others are better, but at twice the price and more, they should be. I refuse to buy any of the Chinese copies of the Harris, they want to make something, they should design it themselves, not reverse engineer a USA designed and built product.
