Description
The Caldwell XLA Fixed Bipod is one of those pieces of gear that just makes sense the moment you clamp it on. It attaches to almost any firearm with a sling swivel stud and gives you a stable platform right where you need it, whether you're stretched out prone or settled in behind the bench. The 9-13 inch height range covers most sitting-to-prone setups, and because the whole thing is built from lightweight aluminum with steel components, it steadies your shot without weighing the rifle down.
What Sets the XLA Fixed Bipod Apart
Deployment is fast. The spring-loaded legs snap out to the shooting position with the touch of a button, and they're notched so you can index to a specific height and get right back to it next time. When you're done, the legs collapse forward against the forend so the bipod stays put on the rifle and doesn't snag on brush while you walk. There's also a connection point built in for a sling attachment, which is a nice touch if you like to keep the bipod mounted full time.
Built to Stay Steady in the Field
Stability comes from the details. Soft rubber feet grip whatever surface you're on, from a hard shooting bench to soft dirt on uneven ground, and the padded base protects your rifle's forend from getting chewed up over time. The XLA clamps firmly to the swivel stud and stays there without twisting or wandering mid-string, which is exactly what you want when you're trying to hold a consistent point of aim.
At right around 11 ounces, this is a no-fuss, dependable bipod that earns its keep for hunters and range regulars alike. It comes ready to run out of the box, mounts in a minute, and backs it all up with Caldwell's limited lifetime warranty. For the money, it's tough to beat as a straightforward, get-it-done rest.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Caldwell XLA Fixed Bipod attach to?
It mounts to a standard sling swivel stud on the forend, so it works with just about any hunting rifle or shotgun set up that way. The bipod clamps solidly to the stud and stays put without twisting or wandering while you shoot. Installation takes about a minute and it's ready to go right out of the box.
What's the difference between the fixed and pivot versions of the XLA?
This fixed model holds a set position and doesn't rock side to side, which many folks prefer for bench work and level prone shooting. The pivot version lets the lower section cant left and right so you can level the rifle on uneven ground. If most of your shooting is off a flat surface or reasonably even terrain, the fixed model does the job and keeps things simple.
How do the legs on the XLA Fixed Bipod adjust?
The spring-loaded legs snap out to the shooting position with the push of a button, then extend between 9 and 13 inches. They're notched so you can index to a specific height and lock it in for repeatable positioning. When you're finished, the legs fold forward against the forend for easy carry.
Will the bipod scratch up my rifle's forend?
No, the base is padded specifically to protect your firearm's forend from wear during use. Combined with the soft rubber feet that grip the ground, it keeps everything steady without marring your stock. It's a smart setup if you plan to leave the bipod mounted for extended periods.
