Too many features? - Atlas Bipods V8 Atlas Bipod

I've only started getting involvled in shooting sports where a bipod is a must have for competition (NRL22). I have a Harris but this seemed like a better alternative. I chose it for the many options but now that I have it I believe that the better choice is the more expensive model that doesn't allow panning and locks the legs from rotating. Not really buyers remorse but sometimes more isn't better. The friction nob controls both pan and tilt and is difficult to get to. Quality is great just make sure you get what you need and optimized for those controls.
