Disclaimer: This is not clever or innovative.  It’s just another way of doing it that I liked better than what I’ve seen mentioned.

For as long as I’ve owned this Harris 25CS, it’s always been a little bit short for anything but totally flat ground.  I use it for coyote hunting and I generally sit with my back to a slope, which usually makes the bipod seem about 4-6” too short. I like using the bipod instead of my tripod because it’s one less thing to carry.
I’ve looked around from time to time to see what other people have done and I couldn’t really find anything that I wanted to do. I finally made some legs and they’re just about perfect for less than $8 in materials. This wasn’t difficult, but I figured someone else might like to see another way of doing it without altering the factory bipod much.

3ft of 1/2” (outside diameter) aluminum tubing $7. This will make 2+ sets.
1/8” Tension pins $0.63

I cut two 9” lengths of tubing for the new legs, which adds about 6.5” to the bipod height.  I knocked out the pins holding the rubber feet on, and measured the distance from the stopper to those factory holes. Drilled a 1/8” hole through the new tube, slid it on the end of the bipod, and hammered in a pin.  Since the new aluminum tube is going over the factory leg, it’s not going to seat all the way into the factory rubber foot.  I put the rubber on the end of the extension and drilled two new holes for the tension pins and put a new pin in each foot. Thats the only part that alters the bipod from factory original, but it’s better than drilling into the metal. I usually buy pins that are just a little longer than I need and then trim the excess with a cutoff wheel.

Sprayed it with some black paint and boom, you got new legs Lt. Dan.  
Total height from the bottom of the feet to the stock is now 36”
