My son Liam wont's to have a go at (Sick of me beating him in Fclass)FTR but not to keen on cutting bits off his rifle to make the weight or getting a lighter barrel so went down the lighter Bipod route.My sons rifle is a Neilson 600 with a 28'heavy Barrel and a 12x42x56 Night Force so it is getting up there in the weight close to the 8 KG for Fclass.But with this Bipod we come in under the 8.25 KG the Bipod weight is 390 gm.You turn the wheel for elevation we will give it a go and see what happens .Thanks to Mik at Dolphin Gun works .so it is a easy way for us to try FTR without having to do a lot of work to his rifle.

Thanks Michael H

Michael,
I just had my first really good look at the Dolphin Gun Company's web site and was impressed with what he has to offer
As per the link below to the "Trakker II Bipod" page, it seems like state - of the - art as far as bipods go

Good luck to Liam with the fancy new bipod, and we look forward to regular updates.

Seeing as you enjoyed yourselves last weekend you can come back for our two day prize meeting in March and he can shoot F/TR there. Shorts 22nd and longs 23rd. And if you're feeling really enthusiastic there's the Vic Vets on Friday 21st which usually has a competition for Juniors (That's anyone under 60!)

Hope you can come.

That's a great looking set up. When running close to the weight limit, remember that changing scopes or barrels can put you over without you realising.

However, under is under!

See you both on a range very soon.
