Lightest bipod for F/TR?

[kelbro]

New stock put me over the 18.15# limit. I'm using a V3 Sinclair.

Is there anything lighter out there?

How much lighter?

How much does the sinclair weigh? Centershot, followed closely by Duplin are about as light as I can think of?

 

[kelbro]

Just under 2#.

Does your Sinclair have the vertical adjustment knob? I use the one without the elevation adjustment for weight. I also use the Centershot bipod, I can't imagine a bipod much lighter. The Centershot is awesome.

Yes, it does have the vertical adjustment knob. I don't use it. Maybe it could be removed for a couple of ounces.

The Duplin is 1lb 1 oz..

Thats gonna be hard to beat. The Censhot also comes in at a pound.

I have two Sinclair Gen 1, one stock and one modified, a Center Shot and a Duplin. The Center Shot and Duplin are pretty close in weight but the Duplin is more rigid. My F-T/R rifle is muzzle heavy and the Duplin helps a lot with flex.

The Duplin weighs 1 lb 1.6oz
The Sinclair GenIII w/ adjustable elevation weighs 1lb 15 oz

I have both and the Duplin is stiffer than that Sinclair which has a hint of fore-aft wobble. The Duplin is also $100 more: you decide.
