Picked up Adler RF-224 the first day I could and 10/22 Magpull Backpacker today.
10/22 fired first 120 rounds with zero issues, have put 600 rounds through Adler and I have 1500 rounds left.

Your bipod should be facing the other direction

Is that to deal with the recoil of .22LR?

I was told it’s because you put forward pressure on the gun with your shoulder and that would collapse a bipod that’s mounted this way. Wasn’t meant to put anyone down just pointing it out

That's pure common sense

Buddys new, he will figure it out. The fact theres a bipod on it at all should tell ya.

“New” but have fired thousands of rounds of tax payer 5.56 from a C7 and C9.

u/sounoriginal13 May 10 '26

Youre welcome ;), to be fair, you mentioned you were new

New in the civilian realm.

They didn’t use bipods in the military?

Only on the C6/C9 and they were generally pointed towards the rear IIRC but I haven't handled either in a few years now.

Can't say I'm surprised that our military training is so poorly done that you don't know which way to face a bipod lol

u/Outrageous_Lie_979 May 11 '26

I know which way but it’s a .22 and it don’t matter.

$29 Amazon bipod works great and keeps the ProMag 597 mags off the table.

It’s setup like that so it slides into my motorcycle side bag without getting snagged on the legs.

I’m giving zero fucks about other people opinions as well. If I cared deeply I wouldn’t have bought a .22 with an 11.7” barrel and stuck a $300 Vortex on it.

I have an RF-224 with a Primary Arms LPVO and a 10/22 in a shitty ATI chassis with a Leupold because it's fun, I have crappy eyesight, and I can. Seeing as daddy won't let me have a C7 or handguns, I'll cope ok with ridiculous 22s.

Incidentally, the Adler was surprisingly good at 50 yds the other day I had it outside for the first time. Groups. Not tight, but groups.

Clearly you care otherwise you wouldn't have posted.
