SH/O BiPods…

Introduced in 2019, this class is defined in Chapter 23 of the SSRs. It offers shooters with factory sporting rifles the opportunity of participating at NRAA ranges alongside TR and F-Class.

SH/O BiPods…

Post by Toe Cutter »

Bipod Width in SH and SHO?

They seem to be getting wider and wider…

The NRAA pages won’t open up at the moment - well, not for me anyways…

Does anyone have a copy saved and can give us a heads up?

TY in advance…

Maybe I should take a ruler to the VRA Kings? 😉

I'm seeing a few mloc folding legs that attach to the stock rather than a bipod assembly. Are they likely to come under scrutiny?

I see no issue personally, the rules do not state 1 piece bipod so as long as they fold 'like a harris' and maintain the maximum distance unextended, go for it, I know a few using that style.
