[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 525661, member: 24624"] A good bipod is quick and easy to setup. ...and a very accurate front rest. You probably don't want one for benchrest competition. But, they're great for anything from load development to hunting. Your groups for load development may suffer by .010-.020" @ 100yds compared to the lead sled. But, does that really matter? There's nothing wrong with a lead sled, or my preference, Caldwell Fire Control. But, they are a hassle to drag around and won't really promote practice. So, use one for load development if it doesn't slow you down too much. And, don't feel handicapped doing load development from a bipod. Either way, go practice long range with your bipod or whatever setup(s) you'll be hunting with. Have fun and don't overthink it! -- Richard [/QUOTE]
