Does the plate on the bottom that holds the weight get in the way or interfere with holding the rifle? It looks like it would be awkward to use.

I had to adjust the way I hold the rifle but it gives you a great steady platform to shoot from and it makes sighting in easy. I put a 20lb weight on it.

The plate does not interfere with holding the rifle. I have a 25 lb barbell weight as well. The shot filled bags might cause a problem.The main structure's center tube does interfere with the lever of my Marlin 1985 and with the 30 round clip of my AR 15.I use the Caldwell "The Rock, Jr" for those rifles.

Have another look at the sled. there is a bar that runs from the front rifle rest to the rear rifle rest that is above the tray that holds the weights. This bar will interfere with long mags but the weight tray is below the bar and offers not impediment to the rifle..

I have taken it out several times now and have not had any problems with the sled getting in the way. The only thing that you have to do is make sure you are sitting up high enough to look down your sights.

nope. works great. just don't over load the bag to the point that it's not flexible when getting it to fit under the bar.

It can get in the way if you want to use a long clip. It gets in the way when I use a 25 round clip on my Ruger 10/22 so I had to use the 10 round clip when I was sighting in my new scope.

Not at all. When you set up the sled you put it so the back of the sled where you put your shoulder is right at the back edge of the shooting bench. Your elbows are just forward of the that on each side and the weights are way out in front of that.

I did not use it due to scope height. It did not interfere with the charging handle with the stock extended.

Yes i noticed that to. Mine does not do that. Its rock solid on the rail. I have been shooting 23/4, 3in shells and it has not moved at all and is still spot on. Hope that helps.

I don't see a problem. It locks into the rail system smoothly and would not prevent a lefty from mounting the AK properly. I don't think the locking lever would be in the way more than the rail system does.

Yes it does. You're supposed to mount them so they fold forward. The reason is because when you are leaning into the rifle snugging the butt end of the stock against your shoulder, the legs won't fold in on you. With them facing the way you saw in the video, you can't fold the legs in, because you're pushing against the way they open, thus not allowing them to close. Hope this made sense.

This bipod is very well made and I do not think there would be an issue holding up that rifle. This is a very solid piece of equipment.

I'd say your best bet is a roll bar mount. It's adjustable and can fit around the gun not a problem.

I think this would only be an issue if the plate had a positioning stud that sticks into a hole in the base of the camera. This plate has no such stud. The tripod screw is centered on the plate, and the plate can lock on to the grip in four different directions.

I dont think it will its like a square when closed but that doesnt matter the design is only stressed vertically it will break and be useless if you fire the rifle while in it or just set it down and let It carry any weight

The weigth is good. That rifle have a good contrast in tha back for holder. I have one and the weigth y like a one bottle o coca cola in your hands.

I don't have mine near me at the moment, but you can set it up to slide to the left side of the rifle. I would protect it and fire a mag and see if it clears it, if that's the side you want it on. It's not going to like getting hit by spent rounds.

As previously answered.. A very loose hold at the balance point of the rifle. There are videos demonstrating it if you search for it.

Nope . Need gunsmith to look at it .reason not that is the chambercthat holds the spring an compressed air. Might bexable to mount on side in woodstock.

If the leg elevation locks won't tighten, that is a product defect. If the rifle rest platform on top moves some, I think that is part of the design, so you can move the aim point around without fiddling with screws and locking hardware. It is not supposed to be a bench rest - including bench and sandbags those must weigh more than 100 pounds.

The gun pod has very atrong legs, it holds my rifle that weighs 8 ibs. No problem.

It's a bit awkward with the bipod extended and might take some practice getting used to. easier to break and cock against a hard surface.

There is a half inch stud sticking out if you remove the L shaped rubber pad that supports the rifle barrel. You would need to find a reducing stud to hold the scope
