[QUOTE="GuroChris, post: 1856748, member: 113578"] Wow, lots of great suggestions. I'm using a Harris sbrm notched bipod 6-9". the tilt mechanism on it is a bit of a bear to tighten down for leveling if I were to adjust the legs to different length. I'll give it a whirl though. I actually shoot a bunch of .22lr for practice. I do positional shooting out to 100m. It just happens that the drift and drop of that .22lr is a 1:4 scale of my .308 win. so I use same elevation adjustment on .22 at 100m as my .308 at 400m. this way I can practice LR without always going to the big range. At the risk of sounding like a smartypants, how are you able to calculate the amount of pressure on the firing hand? If I could actually get it that consistent every time that would be great! I'm just not sure how I would measure that. Realistically, my hunting ranges don't extend that far. I could probably do 90% or more of my hunting with my 30/30 easily enough. I'm just chasing that next level of performance. And on the occasion I can shoot on the 1200 yd KD range I'd like to be one of the guys who at least looks like he knows what he's doing. [/QUOTE]
