[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 339648, member: 13632"] Someone else could give you a better idea about loading the bipod but I'll give it a wack. I get settled in but I hold my shoulder back and when I'm settled down I let things relax and the rifle pushes forward putting tension on the legs. I found that the gun recoils straight back if loaded and if not it will jump and flop a little which does not happen in a consitant manner each shot. It lets me loosen up my body cause the bipod and my shoulder weight holds the rifle, not gripping the stock and pulling it into my shoulder creating tention that will release at the shot when I should be letting the gun recoil and following through. You'll understand it if you give it a try, I sometimes have to dig my legs in a little to keep from slipping. I'm going to make a claw foot for traction. I can't shoot of a 6-9 bipod, it puts me in a bad position with my glasses and head position, the 13in works good for me. [/QUOTE]
