Hi guys
I am a new to hunting and I have a Tikka t3 with a Harris Bipod. When I carry it on a sling with muzzle upwards, it hurts on my shoulders from the edges of the bipod. How do you guys carry rifle with bipod in your hunting trips????

Have you adjusted it to various lengths? Mine has never been an issue, t3 with harris
Thank you for the reply. Now I have shortened the length and put on my jacket. problem fixed.
Thanks again

Put it in you'r day bag.if you need it on to shoot a animal you should have time to attach it

There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
I know you've said problem fixed, but this is still the best advice in my opinion. It's amazing how much difference that little bit of weight makes if you needed to take an offhand shot. I enjoy carrying mine a lot more with it off.
My logic is now that if I need it on, I should have time to attach it, but if I want it off, I probably don't have the time to detach it.
Edit - should have read whole thread, I see you've come to the same conclusion.
Ditto the above comments.
Haven't had issues with mine digging in to my shoulder, does make it a bit top heavy tho so if walking a reasonable distance its in the day pack until in "the zone"

I sometimes carry my rifle off my shoulder with the barrel pointing down, butt to shoulder, you can bring it up faster than the other way round, only prob if you arse up you'll probably have dirt up the spout, but have done this for a long time without a prob
Boom, cough,cough,cough
Try a military 3point sling. Safer than on the shoulder and way more comfortable. Also much quicker to bring into action.
get an eberlestock pack
i dont use a sling anymore
gun in bag, need gun pull from bag, put back in bag , job done
