OK, Let's see if this is worthy of your request.


Early on I found the Bipods are great for targets, sighting in and prairie dogs and anything else where you know where the "target" is going to be.  But they really suck in wooded areas where you need fisheye eyeballs cause they are coming from almost any angle.  It is difficult to easily change the angle of your shot without picking up the gun and bipod and perhaps snagging it on grass or something.  If you were to leave the bipod on the ground and try to swing the gun it would take a lot of movement on your part to make any changes due to the pivot being in the front.


What I ended up doing for the AR was getting a hand held monopod and placing it as far back as I could right in front of the magazine.  This location allows for a more mid or central pivot point yet still support the gun.  So now for every inch I need to move to barrel I only have to move the stock an inch instead of the 2:1 ratio with the support at the end of the stock.


Also I find the hand held monopod give more freedom of movement over a fixed bipod for the same reasons.
