Setting up an Atlas Bipod

[Troy G]

I would like to purchase an Atlas bipod but I am uncertain about a mounting issue that may or may not exist.

When adding a picatinny rail for the atlas bipod what is the most common way to set it so that a long Harris bipod could still be used? When hunting a person cannot shoot from the prone position due to tall grass or in winter a person needs a long bipod to get through the snow.

I am not seeing how a bipod stud could be used to mount a bipod without the Atlas rail removed from the front of the stock unless the rail was mounted quite far back down the stock but I worry about balance using a longer barreled rifle.

Just want to get this figured out before I order a stock and buy an Atlas bipod.

They make adapter's for a sling swivel stud to be used. Order away my friend

The one I got with mine has a hole set up to use a swivel stud. I think mine is the BT15 as it is the shorter of the two and fits the HS Precision spacing.

I know the rails have holes to use a stud with them but is that not for attaching a sling rather than attaching a bipod?

you could buy something like this to attach to your rail and then attach the harris bipod to it?
