The Accu-Tac HYBA-500 Hydro Arca-Spec QD Bipod Black Red is a US-made billet aluminium rifle bipod, part number HYBA-0500, with an Arca-Spec quick-detach clamp that fits standard Arca rails. Height is set hydraulically from an X-handle remote on a 24" / 610 mm hose, covering 5.13" / 130.3 mm to 12" / 304.8 mm, on a stance that opens from 17.25" / 438.15 mm to 25.5" / 647.7 mm.
How It Compares
The Hydro is the one you adjust without moving: an X-handle remote on a 24" / 610 mm hose pushes fluid through the centre hub to raise or lower the rifle while you stay behind the scope, which is a benchrest and F-Class answer rather than a stalking one. For the other rail standard take the Accu-Tac HYB-500 Picatinny Hydro bipod. For a mechanical wide bipod at a fraction of the weight, see the Accu-Tac LP-50 bipod. Compare the wider F-Class and benchrest selection, Arca-Spec bipods and clamps and the full Accu-Tac range.
Ideal For
- Large-calibre and heavy target rifles that need an overbuilt rest
- F-Class and benchrest shooting at extended distances
- Long-range load development from the bench
- Prone shooting with rifles heavy enough to overwhelm a lighter bipod
