[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1568692, member: 10291"] Whether I use bags or bipod to test loads depends on the particular rifle and bipod. My heavier LR rifles will produce equivalent results whether using a bag or bipod. I will generally use bags with my lighter, sporter weight rifles. When using a bipod on the bench, it’s important to make sure the bench surface is smooth...ie avoid carpeted or rough surfaces. I have also found that setting the bipod legs at the forward angle position(Atlas and Evolution) will produce better and more consistent results, reducing any bounce. Consistent shooting form and rifle movement is critical under any circumstances. [/QUOTE]
