Hi Laley.....that is a Caldwell bipod.....Lazy Eyed Sniper suggested it to me as a substitute for the Harris.....I am very pleased with it. It is indeed the 9-13 inch model.....found it on sale for $40.00.
I have also since added a Boyds thumbhole stock:
I have had a ball sighting in my ATR and intend to use it for deer and coyotes this year. I have found it to be sturdy and reliable and wouldn't hesitate to carry it into the woods.
I put a Boyds stock on mine and had it at my club a few weeks ago....it is seriously dialed in and the guys all...
Re: Dressed up my ATR
Itsricmo.....I believe the only thing keeping me from getting sub MOA results with my ATR are my optics , my shooting skills and style. With a better scope and a Lead-Sled I'll bet I could put 3 in the 10 ring no problem. But when I hunt I'll probably be shooting off-hand...
Re: Dressed up my ATR
I got to shoot my ATR with the new Boyds stock today and all I can say is that I am very pleased with my purchase. It is a ball to shoot and I got several comments on how it looks. I may be imagining things but accuracy may have even improved. I can't wait till hunting...
Re: Dressed up my ATR
It was shooting apx 1.5 in groups at 100 yds before the bipod and now the new stock. It took a bit of doing as I changed the scope after sighting it in originally and I have been trying different ammo and such. Overall I feel the gun shoots quite well....especially for...
Re: Dressed up my ATR
Thanks All. I have not had an opportunity to shoot it with the new stock yet. I hope to get out with it this weekend and I will be sure to let you know.
If it shoots as well as it feels when i shoulder it, I will be very happy.
Re: Dressed up my ATR
Thanks Mike.....I originally wanted it because I thought it would look sharp.....I didn't really know that it would handle so well.....kind of a bonus.
My new Boyds Thumbhole stock arrived this week and I installed it last night. Thanks to IMASHRIMP for the inspiration!
I can't believe how nicely the gun shoulders, even with the bipod on, and the raised cheeckpiece helps bring the sight picture into immediate focus. I am very pleased with the...
Thatguy.....I have looked extensively for any substance to these rumors and have found nothing.
I read the court case where the guy you mentioned was drinking all day...tried to modify his rifle...broke and abused his gun....beat it with a hammer when he couldn't get it back together , threw it...

This is the person who responded to my inquiry. He did not indicate how to read the date in the serial number.
Good luck!
I am having a ball with my new 100 ATR....I upgraded the scope right after I bought it and I just added a bipod. Now I am considering a cheek pad. How do you guys feel about them? Will it help accuracy? I hunt coyotes with the rifle but also enjoy bench shooting with it. All opinions welcome...
