The main reason I was looking at the bipod is to add a little extra weight, style,and stability for the range. I already have shooting sticks and they are what I use in the field deer hunting.
Weight...ok maybe for recoil absorbtion a little but the small amount of weight the bipod will add won't chnage felt recoil much at all.
Style...I guess to each thier won but when did range sessions start becoming a fashion show? [
]
Stability...that one I'll buy but if your using shooting stcks in the field when hunting, shouldn't you practice using the same equipment?
IMO, worrying about whatever indiscriminate marks a bipod will make on a stock, especially on a huning rifle is a bit over-worrisome. Then again, I guess it could effect that whole style" thing at the range.
