Thread: Any tricks on getting Backlands to stop flopping around

Suggest you contact Backlanz directly, there may be an easy (read the manual) solve.

I had the Spartan bipod with the inlayed mount (in a carbon fibre stock). The epoxy came loose while shooting downhill, and it just didn't have the spectrum of movements I required. Ended up getting a MTN Mountain Bipod. Matt actually inlayed the rail fitting for me, pretty stoked. It has a much greater range of movement (that I require) and is solid when shooting. The only difference I've noted is the plastic feet are great for the mountains but don't grip like the rubber tips on the Spartan on smooth wooden surfaces at the range (The Spartan has rubber caps and then metal feet from memory) of the Spartan. So when bench shooting, I need to have a grippy surface for the front feet to grip... like a rubber mat. Not a major, just something I've noticed. You can load it up with pressure, but I don't put too much pressure on, to let the rifle do its thing. I had an issue with MTN swaying - too loose, contacted Matt and he pointed out the screw to tighten.. which I could have done myself if I'd read the manual. Great product and NZ made
