Amazons pic is wrong
The main displayed picture for this particular product appears to be of a Harris S-BRM the Cadwell that you will recieve will have smaller side springs, and certain parts are not the same gauge of steel as the Harris model. The Cadwell appered to be reasonably constructed and a good value but I made the purchase based on the picture which I found misleading. I sent the Cadwell back and will be spending 2 1/2 times more for the Harris.

Great Bipod
This is a rock solid bipod. It gives you the stability you need to make the long shots with confidence. I have typically used Harris bipods in the past. At less than half the price, I gave this one a chance. So far it seems every bit as good with one bonus over the Harris models I have used. The legs pivot which means no more picking the whole thing up to re-position if your intended target moves to the side. I use it for coyote hunting which means it gets a lot of use on every outing. I have taken it out seven or eight times in the two weeks I have had it and have had no problems whatsoever. My rifle is a tad under 13 pounds. This bipod has no problem with the weight. I used it on a night hunt and had no problems setting it up in the dark. I'm 6'4" and it is a little tall for me if it is fully extended. The segmented rings around the lower leg make it easy to get the length right every time by simply feeling how many rings are protruding past the upper segment of the leg. This is a big plus at night when its dark. If you are looking for a quality bipod at an affordable price, this seems to be a great option. If I encounter any problems, I will update this review.UPDATE: I have been using this bipod for about two years now. I am still very happy with it. Most of the use has been with a .223 Rem, but I have also used it with a .300 Win Mag. I haven't fired a lot of .300 win mag rounds while using it, but it has held up to the recoil just fine so far.

Why Pay More?
I'm not new to shooting, but this is my first bipod. I read articles about bipods and wondered if I really had to spend $100+ to get something of good quality. I'm happy to say that this Caldwell is excellent. It does exactly what I need it to do. It's a sturdy apparatus, and the push-button spring-loaded legs are impressive for this price range. I don't see why I would spend more; I can't imagine another product being that much better. This does the job, and it even allows you to pivot the gun without completely resetting the stand.One helpful note: I wasn't sure which size to get, but I'm glad I went with the 9-13". Though the measurements refer to the height of the bipod itself, that's not how high the GUN will be from the surface you're shooting from. When you swing the legs down, the bipod loses height because they're diagonal instead of vertical. My rifle actually measures 8 to 12 inches from the shooting surface to the bottom of the gun. If you're measuring to the barrel itself, it's truly 9 to 13 inches. Keep that in mind. I'm glad I didn't go any smaller or I'd only be able to use it laying prone, and even then I'd have to keep my chin to the ground. I can use the 9-13 for anything from laying prone (propped on my elbows) to shooting from a bench rest.

Ok
Ok bipod. Wasn’t an easy setup at all. Harris are way easier of an off and on set up

highly recommend it.
I really like this bipod (13”-23”). I received it 2 days after I ordered it, mount it on my savage bolt action 22-250 within seconds and reattached my sling. It’s very sturdy and quiet. I have always liked Caldwell products I have purchased in the past like their shooting rest for sighting in rifles and the Deadshot Fieldpod for ground blind hunting (great for youth too). The Primos Trigger Stick Bipod is awesome too but it’s another item to carry to the stands. So I figured I give the XLA Bipod a try. The reason why I went with this bipod was the price, the company, the reviews, the weight, portability and Les Johnson’s recommendation. Of course Harris bipods are the best out there hands down but it’s $$$ and 1.3 lbs. I don’t need that right now. Champion bipods are good too but I don’t like the spring return noise and the spring rattles inside the legs (1.4 lbs.). The XLA bipod is right…for me due to lighter weight and it’s quieter (no spring return). I included the weight because a few ounces add up when you’re walking/ hunting all day. I got to test it in field yesterday coyote hunting. I parked at the end of the road and walked 1.5 mi. to the stand. 90 seconds into the call a coyote ran to my decoy 50 yards from me. I noticed the bipod wasn’t high enough to shoot. But I still managed to take down the deer killer. I’m ordering the 13.5”-27” bipod after I’m done with this review. I’m passing this one down to my 14 year old daughter for her rifle. It'll be perfect for her. Another good product from Caldwell.
