Tinsel Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Is there a bi pod that can be used with the R1 rifle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 It would have to be a barrel clamp mount. Link to search Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinsel Posted September 23, 2010 Author Share Posted September 23, 2010 I'll look into it, thanks. It is a new gun, and I shot 50 cartridges, but I now need to make adjustments and, yes, there was no way to use a bi pod, but I figured that there would be some solution! Hopefully these clamps will be easy to get where I live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
energizer Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I would be scared to sacrifice some accuracy with a clamp on. I use a telescopic rest stick on the forestock. No danger of disturbing barrel harmonics. I can also put the stick away when in the bush and the bi pod doesn't catch in the branches. It may not look as cool but i think it is more practical. Especially as u can not attach it directly to the forestock. By the way. I came on site to announce that my benelli argo el shot its first game. I went to the range today to sight it in and what do you know. A small five point (10 point for some of u) was eating at the 200 yrd mark. We have a small community range with only a handfull of users. I have rarely seen someone else there when i went. Therefore it's not strange to have a buck on the range. It aint there now. Well excuse me all. I got some cuttin to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinsel Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 Now I know what the score is with the bi pod. I also heard that it is better to rest the gun on the fore stock (since this gun does not have a dock for a bi pod) rather than on the barrel. I see that The Bass Pro Shop has the solution. It was my first shoot ever, and I burned the gun up just a bit inside the fore stock but the char marks burnished off. I don't really care but I will space out the shooting. Those you tube videos are not very good, this is not a shot gun, it is a rifle! Anyway, what a cool gun, holy smokes, was that ever a blast, does it ever rock. I'll buy another if I find that it is dependable. For me it is a starter gun although it isn't as if I am going to do a ton of shooting, but a few trips to the range every year and a yearly hunt is what I will put it up to.
