The Atlas Bipod BT65-LW17 CAL, part number BT65-LW17 from B&T Industries, is the standard-height CAL (Cant And Loc) Atlas bipod supplied with the American Defense ADM-170-S quick-detach lever mount fitted. It clamps to any MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail in seconds and locks its cant positively, so the rifle stays where you level it.
How It Compares
This is the quick-detach member of the BT65 family. The BT65 CAL with the two-screw Picatinny clamp is the fixed, bolted-down option, and the BT65-NC CAL supplied with no clamp is for a 17S-size mount of your own choosing. For longer legs, the Atlas BT69-LW17 CAL Tall bipod pairs the tall CAL with the same lever. The lever is also stocked separately as the American Defense ADM-170-S Picatinny lever mount. Compare the range in our Atlas bipod range.
Ideal For
- Stalkers who share one bipod between a stalking rifle and a range rifle
- Hill stalking and steep ground, where locking the cant matters
- Practical and service rifle, and PRS-style stages
- F-Class, benchrest and target rifle where the bipod is removed for transport

Frequently Asked Questions
What does CAL stand for on an Atlas bipod?
CAL stands for Cant And Loc, B&T's name for positive, lockable cant control that keeps the rifle level on uneven ground.
Which mount does the Atlas BT65-LW17 need?
The Atlas BT65-LW17 needs no separate mount, because the American Defense ADM-170-S quick-detach lever is supplied already fitted; the rifle only needs a MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail section for the lever to clamp onto.
Will the Atlas BT65-LW17 return to the same position after removal?
The ADM-170-S lever mount is designed for repeatable refitting to the same rail slot, so putting it back in the slot it came from is what keeps the fit consistent, and the clamping nut can be adjusted to suit your rail.
What is the mounting hole pattern on the CAL series?
The CAL series uses a 1.100 inch (27.9 mm) two-hole pattern with 10/32 threads, which is the 17S size, so any 17S-size mount will bolt to it.
Which feet fit the Atlas BT65-LW17 CAL bipod?
It takes the V8, PSR and CAL pattern Atlas quick-change feet — BT32 standard rubber feet, BT23 quick-change ski feet and BT74 Raider stainless steel cleat feet — each sold as a pair and listed in our bipod accessories.
What is in the box?
The box contains one Atlas BT65 CAL bipod with the American Defense ADM-170-S lever quick-detach mount already fitted.
