Ran across this on YouTube. The single click adjustments look really nice, but I’m curious as to its weight compared to an Atlas.

Did a little more research and on Warne’s Facebook page they responded to a question about retail price-$199!! Sign me up!

Update on this bipod. I spoke to Warne and due to some manufacturing and packaging redesigns, they had to increase the MSRP to $375 from sub-$200. It’s now available for preorder at OpticsPlanet for $303. Can’t spend that coin on an unproven design so I bought an Atlas BT10. To say I’m disappointed is an understatement.

One of the things that made the Atlas expensive was that its almost entirely machined from bar stock.
The Warne (which i doubt they make) looks suspiciously like it uses a lot of 'near net shape' casting, which in aluminum means it is brittle, and ends up, as mentioned, heavier.
