dude at the range had one. I shot from it. Best Bipod ever. It really delivers what it says it does. Now I just have to save up for a year to afford one, lol
Glad you loved it, it really is an impressive bit of kit. They're actually pretty decent value when you consider the materials and machine time involved! We're here when you're ready for yours.
Thanks for the description of the difference between the two Arca adapters. Looks like my new bipod (carbon version). Not cheap but look like a quality product. I already have one of your short saddle scope mounts, lovely bit of kit and I like to support British manufacturers. I'll also add your customer service was great when I needed to swap the mount to a higher version, my error!
TIER ONE>>>>>You need to add an option with a adjustment rod similar to the SEB Joy Stick but on the TIER One when to twist the handle it raises it up or down .I think you would have the best of both words
The thumb nuts on the body of the bipod above each leg allow you to lock the bipod legs in place or adjust the adjustment tension. The legs move together, but cant adjustment makes up for a certain amount uneven ground. Perfect for use one the bench or fixed firing points.
Hi, I have the FTR carbon fibre Tier 1 bipod. Twice on the range my rifle has become detached from the bipod. I appreciate this must be something I have done wrong when first setting the bipod up. I am not very mechanically minded and would have appreciated some setting up instructions. Other shooters at the range use your bipods without problems, I am great with bricks and mortar but spanners and screw drivers, not so much. PS, I have just found out what the thumb nuts are for from the previous comment!!!@@TierOne
how far do you recommend running that bipod out on your stock? Because I get that obviously you'd want to have the largest distance possible between your points of stability but if you cant reach the dial doesnt that kind of defeat the purpose for such an extremely adjustable bipod? Basically what Im trying to get at here is lets say I run this a few inches back from the forend, will I see a significant change in stability as opposed to running it farther out? Especially because the tikka I plan to put it on is extremely front heavy with a 28" m24 contour barrel, and Im already having issues with it wanting to fall forward, so if I need to run it short is the best option to throw some more weight on the rear?
It's a great question. Ideally, yes you want to have the bipod as far forward as possible, however in reality you should have plenty of stability with the FTR bipod within arms reach of the adjustment dial. If you're shooting from a fixed firing point you shouldn't need to make too many adjustments once set up, so within fingertip reach is all you really need. We have plenty of people using the FTR bipod on long barrelled rifles without issue.
Two very different bipods really. If you need to be able to adjust hight or footprint easily then the FTR bipod is the better option. If you want a balljoint head then the that's not something we currently offer on the FTR bipod.
@@TierOne yes. I KNOW.It would be a big selling bipod if you could invent one as I described though.I shoot alot and am a director at a gun range.I get to see a lot and hear a lot.Just thought I'd mention it.I appreciate your fast reply .
They're a beautiful rimfire. The MTR offers two sling studs mounting points, ideal for fitting a Picatinny rail. We would recommend fitting a Picatinny rail to offer maximum precision and versatility.

These are sweet, I just ordered the carbon fibre one for my Browning X-Bolt Target Pro McMillan. Can’t wait to try it out!
Thank you, we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Hi what is the adjustable thumb nut (at the top of each of the legs) please and does one leg drop down further on uneven surfaces? Thanks

@@TierOne thanks for the reply, I’ve bought it last week and wondered.
@@philbuzz9028 Thanks for being part of the Tier-One family. Happy shooting and hope you love it as much as we do.

@@tomhoughton9441 Hi Tom, sorry to hear that, do you mind me asking what fitment adapter you are using?

@@TierOne perfect, sounds like I'll have one on the way next paycheck. Thank you for the reply and information
@@JimTrivial Always welcome.
Ive been trying to decide on the Tier-One or the SEB Joy Pod..I just cant makeup my mind .Its for FTR

@@TexasTrained Thanks for the feedback. It's certainly something we can discuss for the future.
it would make you the favorite abd Front runner for sure.Go I d luck and thank you for making such a great product for the shooting world.
AJ-I have a CZ 457 MTR. what would you recommend as far as a mount?
They're a beautiful rimfire. The MTR offers two sling studs mounting points, ideal for fitting a Picatinny rail. We would recommend fitting a Picatinny rail to offer maximum precision and versatility.
How much are the carry cases for the carbon fibre bipod?
Hi, sorry for the late reply, we've been away training. The cases are $65 and should be coming back into stock soon.
