Accu-Tac FC-5 Bi-pod

[Billm]

I’m building my wish list for my next purchases. I think I would like to purchase an Accu-Tac FC-5. It would be mostly used for shooting off of the bench. I do place various targets around the yard out to 100 yards or so and so I think I would like the pan function. I use a cheap import bipod sometimes and would like more quality. It’s overkill for what I own now, but I want to future proof and with discount price of $390, it seems reasonable. I’m just curious what Accu-Tac owners like or dislike about their particular model?

be aware of the hight
the shorter ones are the ones I prefer maybe others can chime in

Ok, I wondered about that

I am very happy with my Accu-Tac.

Here’s an article about what different bench rest shooters use.

Benchrest Air Rifle Rests And Supports

First a clear statement. I am definitely NOT a benchrest air rifle shooter. More’s to the point, I am not a competitive shooter in any way. However, I do find it interesting to watch and try to understand what makes for success in airgun shooting competitions. This post results from attending...

I shoot from a bench, so I always get the shorter ones.

 

[Billm]

Yeah I’m rethinking the tall one

Glad I saw this thread. Skip that pan....silliness just slide the whole gun, once it's on, it becomes one with the gun, it's that solid! I have the SR5 and love it. As you can see it's JACKED though. The BR4 would probably have been a better choice? Guessing it may go on ur new Ghost so here's some ideas...and yes I plan to make a bag rider at some point

 

[Billm]

Nice. Yeah, it will be for the Ghost lol.

I had an HD50 which is one of the taller of the bunch and owned a br4 g2 (my favorite all around bipod) and the Fc4 which was also great , I definitely recommend sticking with the 4 over the 5 models, the 4 extends plenty!! while giving you more minimum height!

Thanks for everyone’s input. I ordered an FC-4. I wanted the wide stance. Everyone’s input in the lower 4 made a lot of sense. Loved the $130 military discount. Hated the fact accu-tac said it takes them 2-3 weeks to process an order. I almost ordered it next day from Amazon, but I figured $130 is worth the wait lol.

I want one as well. I'm just having a hard time justifying $400.00 for a bipod. If i shot competition it would be a must have! My $50 dollar Amazon bipod will have to do for now. If you have the means to get it go for it!

I hardly use rail mounted bipods anymore, but when I do it’s good to know that I have a quality bipod. My AccuTac is built solid compared to my UTG Recon and other basic cheap bipods I own or have used. I forget the model. I think it’s a BR version. I’ll have to look. It cants, but doesn’t pan. I found a sale, bought one and never looked back. No regrets.

I’ve only had a a cheap Chinese bipod that I bought for my AR’s about 15 years ago. I couldn’t bring myself to use it with the AR’s and so I threw it on my Beeman. I couldn’t justify this, but I did it anyway.
