I don't like tripods and do not use them, but assume what works with a bipod will work with a tripod.
I like to lean into the bipod, drop the sling down the front of the bipod and grasp sling and bipod with left hand and pull toward shoulder (right hand shooter). This holds rifle down and makes a unit of the bipod/rifle. Feet are spread shoulder width at slight angle to the direction of fire. This helps hold side to side movement to a minimum. For rock solid position if I can get my right shoulder against something solid its almost as good as a bench rest.
