Question on Harris Bipod

I wish to buy a Harris BR bipod for my AR15. I see that there is also an S series that allows the base to rock left and right for leveling of the rifle.
Does anyone recommend this S series benchrest bipod over the standard one? The S series costs about $25 more and so I wondered if the extra cost would be worth it.

I do a lot of varmint hunting and . . .

highly recommend the S-Series. Enables you to level the scope crosshairs as soon as you have target acquisition. Without the swivel feature, you're forced to lengthen one of the bipod legs to get the crosshairs level; and this is a time-consuming operation. If you're not in a hurry, the regular Harris bipod works fine, but the critters I'm drawing a bead on usually don't wait around . . .

I don't do any varmint hunting, but I see where the S series would be better for any type shooting using a bipod.
Thanks!
