Bi Pod ?

[encore50a]

Short of buying an Atlas and breaking the bank, what suggestions are there for Bipods?

I've never had any issues with my Harris swivel models. What are looking to use it for? Field use or a heavy tactical boomer?

Single rest for my Ultimate. I may be learning to shoot prone for accuracy.

I've been looking at bog-pod abs also the primos trigger sticks.

At the moment I use a camera tripod with a screw on rifle rest. Works good just hard to set up quickly.

Short set of wooden cross sticks are very accurate prone and allows gun to move more consistent during recoil

I made a bifirpod and it works well for hunting situations. I also have a Harris swivel and it is great if you have time to get setup.

I'm looking for something strictly for target and not field use.  I've never had the need for a bi-pod, but what I'm interested in is something that can be removed for hunting.

When you're shooting competition, what do all the shooters and you seem to favor?  I need to make it down and watch the shoot this spring.

I initially started on bench with front rest only. Which is all that is allowed for this class. But ive came to be more comfortable with short cross sticks and mat shooting prone. I feel steadier this way and recoil seems more consistent relating to grip and shoulder pressure. Plus prone is less equipment to deal with and is realistic setup hunter instead of a bench.

Your cross sticks, are those similar to what hawghunter's link shows? I've never shot prone that I can remember, which would be a whole new adventure in itself. I wouldn't even know the proper position/form.

Its interesting and I need to learn from those that know what they're doing.
