Only $99, delivered. I'm satisfied with the build quality with it being a cheaper item.
I'm after some opinions from anyone that's used sticks. Do you prefer the bipod, tripod, 4-stick system?
I'm thinking that I rushed into, possibly should've gone for the 4-stick system, back and front support.
I've seen a few reviews of a brand, Viper. They look to be the business.
I managed to get some reasonable groups today at about 80m. Hell of a lot better than free standing.

Do you get a lot of use out of your sticks? I'm more interested in trekking and stalking as opposed to blasting around in the ute with spotties. I think I'm going to be using the sticks a lot.

There simply is no “in between” so if I’m about to take a shot in the open I sit on my backside and use two traditionally tied 750 mm sticks as a front support and I use the fact that I’m planted on the ground and the arch of my torso as a back support. This gives me the front and back support without the hassle of an extendable bipod attached to the front of my rifle A bipod is a pain if I have to sling my rifle during carry and two much sticks get stuck in it. If I find myself in the field and realise I have forgotten my shooting sticks I make a new pair from whatever I see around me

They do seem too good to be true...
