Excellent bipod
I have been shooting off one of these for a month or so. Borrowed one, because mine is stuck in customs in Canada being reviewed for whatever reason.
The bipod is solid, with great adjustability and easy on/off features. It is light, strong and fits various shaped stock fore-ends. The feet are height and the micro adjustment I the centre is very useful. Anti-cant and friction control work well with the big lever handle.
Overall great bipod. I wish I had mine.

Sinclair bipod
Great in EVERY way!
Sinclair F Class BiPod
Great purchased, love the bipod and its versatility
Brownells/Sinclair bipod
I received my bipod 3 days after placing my order. The Sinclair F-Class bipod was easy to assemble, less than 10min from opening the box it was on my weapon and squared away. This thing is as solid/steady a rest, as any front rest Ive used, including the ones my friends have that cost 5Xs as much. Im new to F-Class and some of the the tools used, Im very pleased with Brownells and my Sinclair bipod.
Couldn't Afford a Phoenix
I have a Savage 110 mounted in the Choate's Ultimate Sniper stock. These stocks have a slanted fore end, and it makes it difficult to keep the rifle stable with a standard Caldwell bipod. The Sinclair bipod fixed the issues, works flawlessly, extremely stable as well! Cons: it could really use a larger elevation knob to make it easier to reach from the shooting position. I cleaned up an old liftgate chain sprocket, drilled center to 1", drilled and tapped threads through the side and installed a #8-32 SS Allen set screw.
Excellent Performance
This bipod is a must have for long range shooters and those working up new loads for their rifle. The bipod keeps the rifle firmly aligned, the adjustable feet offset uneven terrain and the adjustable elevation make those miniscule vertical adjustments necessary for long range target engagement and also to precisely zero in when working up new loads. I also love the ability to adjust and lock in cant with this bipod, another extremely useful feature when working up loads or engaging targets beyond 1,000 yards. I have seen the comments about inability to obtain replacement screws from Sinclair but come on, these are NOT unique screws and are easily found at any big box hardware store. As for comment about inside and bottom of frame have rough finish (only top of frame is milled down), that is true but it does not distract whatsoever from the performance of this bipod. If one is into the aesthetics of a bipod to want such a finish (and I'm not objecting but they most probably will be the only ones to notice), then one can use a Dremel tool to smooth out the inside and bottom edges of the frame and repaint it to achieve and fully milled look. Bottomline, this bipod does exactly what it was designed to do - provide an extremely stable platform for your rifle.
Great bipod
Great bipod, but did notice while unpacking from it's day at the range one of the feet was loose. I have 2 of their SINCLAIR TACTICAL BIPOD and noticed the screws will work loose if you don't put a touch of blue loctite on them. I put a drop of loctite on both of the screws holding the feet on. A lock washer would also work. Both types of Sinclair bipods work extremely well, would recommend them to family and friends without a worry and give them a bottle of blue locktite. .
Better than bags!
I was introduced to this product by my shooting buddy about a year ago. Being older, he uses higher magnification scopes and this rest helped him to work up handloads because for him every tenth of an inch counts. I've been using it on my 700P .300RUM when he comes down to visit. I use sandbags to work up loads when I have to but recently I finally bought this rest for myself. Having bought a new rifle that allows me to explore the limits of my own ability, this rest is incredible! My rifle holds to .75-.5 MOA regularly but it is hard to find an area to shoot past 600yds sometimes. This past weekend I shot my first group with this rifle at 1050yds and printed a .75MOA 8 shot group off of this rest! You couldn't have slapped the grin off my face! This rest used in the field (read NOT bench) reduces my group size by 15-20%.
