[QUOTE="Idaho Lefty, post: 2276304, member: 104437"] We found that, Bi-Pods affect POI, due to,. Forend,.. MOVEMENT ( Stress on the gun & stock from, preloading ) in, the Prone position. Unless, you have, a very STIFF / solid, Forend and barrel with, lots of, "Free float" you are, stuck with,.. IT ! IMO And WHY, the successful LONG Range shooters seem to build, heavy 10 Pound PLUS, Rifles. ( I glass Bed, the Barrel Channels to "Stiffen" my Varmint Rifles forends,.. IF, wanting to use,.. a Bi Pod ! We shoot over, a FILLED Pack with, a Toe Rest for, the longer shots and use Sticks, in Sitting position, with pack on chest to support the Rifles "Toe" to 400 Yards ( on Light, sub 8 pound, Mountain Rifles ). We couldn't stand, the Forend Flexing and the POI "shifting", chit,.. either ! [/QUOTE]
