Hatch Outwest. It has to be the fastest deploying bipod I've ever used.

QD42 | Quick Detach Hybrid Bipod/Shooting Stick

The QD system, a hybrid by design, took the Quick Adapt Technology from our Hunter Series and put it into a versatile shooting system. The QD does more than simply function as a barrel rest. By attaching the QD directly to your weapon, you are able to maintain a proper shooting position giving...

For $10-$20 you can buy a pic rail adaptor that will allow you to use any stud-mount bi-pod. I have shot off a Harris bi-pod many times while sitting on the ground.

* Amazon has a load of different pic rail options.

Look at the springbok bipod they have an adapter for pic rail they are super light and if too tall then you just spread the legs out. These are spendy but worth it I have had great success with it so far am going to save up and get one of their tripods it is a different kind of attachment that they have lots of different adapters for any rifle

Another +1 for a tripod in any position higher than prone.

Whatever you decide on do some checking to be sure that you are getting the real deal not a counterfeit one. I bought a Harris bipod that wasn't a Harris bipod, when it broke, I contacted Harris, and they explained to me how to tell the difference between theirs and the knockoffs that they had been seeing. For every good product out there, you can find counterfeits that are remarkable look alkies.

I had a tall Harris for the same reason. It was a fantastic gun mounted bipod for that purpose.

Later I found collapsible sticks with a yoke to be much better suited to my task of siting a spot and moving. It was more handy, easier to manipulate, and you could stow in pack and then use as needed. I even used it with a short harris mounted for prone.

BOG, Primos, other markers are out there to suit a budget.

Im looking for a bipod that works good for sitting on the ground. Like literally sitting on your butt and having about 27" legs coming off the gun, but with a picatiny mount. I have a gun that has a pic rail up front and i cant take it off, if i did the stock would be ugly underneath there. Any recommendations wiuld be greatly appreciated!

This is not a WTB, this is recommendations.

While I do little coyote call'n/hunt'n…..this has worked for me for about 25 years.

We (wife & I) use shooting sticks. I bought 48" long x1/2" diameter fiberglass rods. The fiberglass is linear in the rod……no "fiberglass fuzzies"!

The sticks are pretty stiff, and will get you over a lot of the smaller bushes/brush and tall enough to help with steep downhill shots. Also, their being stiff, can also be used as a walking stick when in deadfall, steeper grades, ect. Yes, they're not as strong as a true walk stick….but, offer a lot of stability when in uneven terrain.

I've even used mine in walking through a hillside of moderately sized rocks covered in snow. It helps to find the gaps between the rocks with the sticks, rather than busting an ankle by stepping in a hole/gap.

They also can be dropped instantly for a quick "snap shot"…..while "not" destroying the balance of your rifle!

They may not quite as stable as a rifle mounted bipod for extremely long shots……but are pretty darn good for many other things when hunting! memtb

Depends on your budget but like a few others have said, Hatch bipods are hard to beat! I have 2 of them, they're very versatile and will cover you from prone to sitting.

And they are made right here in SE Idaho. Love mine

I used a Versa-Pod setting bipod for several years. I was easy to attach and detach using the 150-100 universal mounting adaptor, had tilt and pan abilities. You could carry it in your hand or pack then attach it in seconds at the set, so it wasn't a problem being attached to your rifle when in transit.

Hatch. For butt sitting height, nothing in my opinion comes close to the Hatch.
