Description
The Leapers UTG Recon 360 TL is one of those bipods that does a lot more than just plant your rifle on two legs. It combines a full 360 degrees of panning with 15 degrees of tilt forward, rearward, left, and right, so you can level your reticle and track a target across uneven ground without repositioning the whole gun. Built from 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum, steel, and polymer, then finished in matte black anodizing, it holds up to real field use while keeping a low, unobtrusive profile on your setup.
What the Recon 360 TL Brings to the Bench
The standout feature here is the tunable tension system. A centrally located throw lever at the base lets you adjust exactly how much resistance you feel when panning and tilting, so it can be locked down tight for a static rest or loosened up for smooth tracking. Better still, that lever is user serviceable and re-adjustable over time as the bipod wears in, using a T15 Torx to reset the tension. That means it stays feeling right for the long haul instead of getting sloppy.
Legs, Feet, and Mounting on the UTG Recon 360
This TLBP02B model runs a 5.6 to 7.2 inch center height with five lockable leg extension notches, all held in place by a knurled locking thumb wheel. The legs fold into three positions and wear non-slip rubberized feet that bite into most terrain and surfaces. It clamps to any MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail using just one slot of space, and the Picatinny model ships with a swivel stud mount adapter right in the box, so it works on traditional stocks with a sling stud too.
At roughly 13.7 ounces, it lands in a nice middle ground: sturdy enough to inspire confidence on a heavier rifle, light enough that it won't tip the balance on an AR or bolt gun. For hunters, target shooters, and anyone who wants an adjustable rest that adapts to the ground instead of fighting it, the Recon 360 TL is a lot of capability in a compact package.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Recon 360 TL mount to my rifle?
It clamps directly to any MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail using a square steel cross bolt and only takes up about one slot of rail space. This Picatinny model also comes with a swivel stud adapter, so you can run it on a traditional stock with a sling swivel stud instead. That gives you two mounting options right out of the box.
Can you adjust how stiff the panning and tilt feel on the Recon 360 bipod?
Yes, that's one of the best parts of this bipod. A throw lever at the base sets exactly how much tension you want on both the 360-degree pan and the 15-degree tilt, so you can lock it down solid or loosen it for smooth tracking. The lever is also user serviceable, so if it starts feeling loose down the road you can reset it with a T15 Torx wrench.
What height range does the TLBP02B cover?
This model adjusts from 5.6 to 7.2 inches of center height with five lockable extension notches. That range works well for prone and low bench positions on ARs, bolt guns, and similar setups. A knurled thumb wheel locks each leg at the length you choose.
Is the Recon 360 TL good for hunting and rough terrain?
It handles the outdoors well thanks to non-slip rubberized feet that grip dirt, wood, and other surfaces, plus legs that fold into three positions for easy carry. The aluminum build with matte black anodizing shrugs off wear and scratches in the field. It's a solid choice for hunters and target shooters who need a rest that adapts to uneven ground.
