[QUOTE="Longshotjames, post: 1594685, member: 91374"] for a back packing hunt going in with lots of steep hills but possible long shots. 1. Attach a bipod that covers quick steady shots from sitting, kneeling or prone but it adds 1lb to the rifle Or 2. Figure shots are either close&quick and go w/o to cut weight and plan to use your pack for longrange opportunities and either walking stick or closest available tree for close shots I’ve only killed 2 elk, the first one required an offhand rush shot at 90yds(no time for bipod). The 2nd was at 200yds and I was topping an open hill, the herd had already gone on alert so it was quick to fold out the bipod, drop to a knee and make the shot. That time, the bipod was worth it’s weight in gold! [/QUOTE]
