Thread: Shooting over Bipod or Backpack ?

Several years ago I had an epiphany moment. I was carting around my LR .270, bipod attached, suppressor screwed on. And I was looking at the long grass and possible shot scenarios on offer.

I no longer use the bipod and my rig has gone to a non supressed 260 Rem And it is successfull.

I also shoot a Creedmoor 6.5 at targets up to 600 yds. While it has a suppressor I still use a back pack ( the one i take hunting) as its primary support. I have bipods, but I just dont like them. And I dont use them, Things may change and they could well become flavour of the month again, but I have found I prefer a branch or a back pack every time.
