MDT MOUNTAIN BIPOD – ARCA – BLACK
5.7 Ounces. 2.7" to 15.8". Built for the Backcountry.
The MDT Mountain Bipod pairs carbon fiber legs with titanium and 7075 aluminum hardware for a 5.7 oz bipod that adjusts from 2.7" to 15.8", cants more than 180° and mounts directly to an ARCA/RRS dovetail. Originally designed for New Zealand backcountry hunting and named Best Accessory at SHOT Show 2025, it's the support for hunters who count every ounce.
Mountain hunting asks a lot of a bipod: it has to disappear on the pack, deploy fast when the shot appears and hold steady on ground that's never level. The Mountain Bipod was built for exactly that. Developed for New Zealand's steep backcountry and refined by weight-conscious mountain hunters, it gives you a stable rest without the weight penalty of a traditional precision bipod. Use it for: backcountry and sheep hunting, steep or uneven terrain, low prone shots and shooting over grass and brush.
Fast to Deploy, Easy to Level.
Quick-deploy push buttons drop the legs with one hand, and twist-lock leg extensions adjust height easily, even with gloves on. A leg splay feature lowers and widens the stance for ultra-low prone positions, while more than 180° of cant lets you level the rifle on a sidehill without repositioning. MDT has tested it with magnum cartridges including .300 PRC.
Direct ARCA Mounting.
This version clamps directly to an ARCA/RRS dovetail with no adapter, keeping the system light and low. It does not attach to Picatinny or sling studs, so your rifle needs an ARCA rail. Running an MDT Oryx? Our Made-in-USA PPFL-ARC Full-Length ARCA Rail adds a full-length ARCA surface with QD sling cups. Previously listed as MPN 114700-BLK, the current part number is 114796-BLK.
