    I have a 16" s/s one with a red dot on it, quite accurate at the 75yds I sighted in at and very handy to carry in the bush - puts big holes in things too.

    Grab it, that's a bargain

    If you do decide to get a bipod, check the 6” - 9” will give you enough height for all occasions, I feel the 9” - 13” height is a better all round option.
