Your local gun shop would be a good start. They well not be cheap anywhere you buy them. If you want to use them for predator hunting you'd be better off with shooting sticks, they cost less money and work better in my opinion.....Good luck and good hunting. :)

dancoman.

You might try Caballas or sportmans guide or you might try googleing for them, Like Onecoyote said you might try shooting sticks they sure do work for me. I have a hard time getting down on all fours and the shooting sticks will reach any height you want, so you can sit down and do your calling........Joe.......HTH

I've never used "shooting sticks" so can't comment but I've used several different models of Harris Bipods and I think they're the greatest thing since bottled beer and well worth the money.

I'd like to respond again but it ain't worth it. Buy what you want and go for it.

I have a Harris Bipod that I spent around $125 for a couple years ago, I've bought Harris bipods in the 70s that cost $40 some dollers, they were not cheap then and they are not now.

If you're shooting ground squirrels and prairie dogs they work great, you usually have lots of time to set up and to get the bipod level.

If your hunting predators you don't always have time. There are better and cheaper ways to go. Experience is the best teacher, spend your money and find out for yourself....I did lol.

I think you would be better off with the shooting sticks.the bipods are okay.But..it is hard to shoot any other position when they are on the firearm and not deployed..I use niether.but have both..good luck..and as for the cheapest place..I would try a google search and see if you can not beat the catalog and marts prices..
