    I like shooting with a bipod but ALWAYS leave it folded up and rest it on a bush shirt or something when firing over the ute bonnet. The bipod will bounce/rebound badly as the bonnet will 'bounce' under it on the shot also. Lean right forward over the bonnet and use something else as a rear rest and try to get your elbows onto the bonnet too.

    I'm like you and do all my shooting like i'll be hunting. Prone with a spiked bipod on grass with rear rest. Or prone with Pikau front rest with shirt rear rest. Both elbows need to be on the ground to steady in either position. However your shooting/loads have ALOT of room for improvement. Shooting position is the most important thing to improve first as you cant determine what your rifle/loads are actually doing until this is sorted.
