I would suggest replacing the studs with 10/32 screws so they do not interfere with the bipod. Simply remove the studs, put the rail on the stock and screw them back in. If a stock is equipped with two QD studs on the fore-end installation is easy. If your rifle is always equipped with two QD on the fore-end, simply select the appropriate rail for your spacing, unscrew the studs and screw the rail into place. Many rifles come with two QD studs on their fore-ends. The BT17 is 4.00″ long and accommodates hole patterns with 2.20″ to 3.5″ center-to-center spacing. The BT is 3.35″ long and accommodates hole patterns with 1.76″ to 2.78″ center-to-center spacing. Both of these rails are modular, accommodating different spacing of pre-installed QD studs. The Atlas bipod shown here requires a 1913 rail in order for it to be attached to a rifle.Īccu-shot makes two different Atlas bipod rails, the BT15 and the BT17. However, if you are shooting a bolt action rifle with a traditional stock, you’ll need a rail if you want the fancy bipod. If you are shooting an AR-15/M16 style rifle with a rail system, this isn’t much of an issue. Some of the newer, sturdier designs like the Atlas and Sierra 7 require a Picatinny (1913) rail to mount them to your rifle. Bipods have come along way in the past few years.
