[QUOTE="DoneNOut, post: 2829880, member: 113404"] It's all about the recoil management with body position. If you zero a gun with the forend resting on top of something and it is unsupported, you will get a different POI than if you held the forend while shooting. If you load a bipod vs unloaded you will get vertical POI differences too. I shoot prone bipod A LOT. Going to a field position, holding the forend out of a truck or off sticks will generate a zero change from that bipod zero. If the goal is to get into firing position with the least amount of movement, but yet be above the grass, I would consider a monopod shooting stick. Place the stick at an angle towards you and then lean into the stick until you are elevated above the grass to fire. This could be done very slowly and without a lot of undue fussing/movement.
