Hey Muley,
Just another option you might consider instead of the bi-pod is the stoney point steady sticks. They are shock corded and extremely light. I just stick mine inside of strap on my fanny packand clip it to a d-ring (quick draw style). I would bet that I can be set up with them as fast as any bi-pod and they seem more stable on uneven groun as they adjust instantly to almost any angle. I feel like bi pods are clumsier especially if you decide to cover a little walking distance or have to shoot off hand for any reason or taking a rest of another object (fence, log, whatever). plus you can take the sticks "up the mountain" on another type of hunt with negligible weight. Just a thought.
