[QUOTE="7070yshot, post: 1979526, member: 114427"] What are your group sizes at 100? Do you have a muzzle break? This calms a rifle down significantly. Some will say it’s louder but who cares,, it’s a gun and hopefully wearing ear pro. So not knowing anything else about then, I would get rid of the Harris BiPod. Honestly, and I’m sure I’ll get a few scoffs, there are much better bipods for magnum rifles. The rubber stops really only increase the bounce that results from the shot and torque of the barrel. Either shoot from a solid front stand or bag, something with little to no downward give, or bipod with ski type feet. You want the rifle to ride straight back not up or bouncing off of rubber feet. If you study how Benchrest andF-Class competitions guns run they are not using flimsy lightweight bipods. Ejecting the bipod all together is a good idea as well - learning to shoot from a solid cradle that’s mounted in a stand or from 4 legged sticks will give you an extremely solid hold. Find a place to put they chicken wing (firing arm) and make it stable. record yourself shooting Where do your hands go? What does your grip look like, being exact and consistent from shot to shot will make a difference- same everything. lmk how it works out [/QUOTE]
