Got a delivery today! - lrgrendel - 09-25-2014
Got these in the mail today. The buffer was already mentioned in another post.
Just wondering if anyone has any comments on the monopod. Also there are 3 positions on the PRS stock to put the monopod. Which one and why? I am 6'3" probably most rearward?
Also just put a Timney Calvin Elite on a Remington 700. It seems to have a tiny bit of "creep" before it breaks. Would also appreciate any comments on my new trigger. Only dry fired it but will test all 3 of my additions tomorrow.

I have one for the 24 inch and it works great used it and like shooting at the range with it. I put mine on the rear that way I just push the button and flip it forward and do not worry about screwing it back down to bottom again (just the way I did it/do it) mine works fine. BANG BANG!!

Be sure to watch this vid regarding use of the monopod:

Buffer and trigger worked real well. Not sure about the monopod.....
Rock steady vertically but not so much horizontally. Anyone have any ideas??

Not convinced on the monopod, either. I'm also 6'3". I still like my bags better. I'm still giving it some time, but bags seem much more stable than the monopod, even at minimal extension.

Somebody in my club suggested putting a low flat bag under the monopod....
we will see!

I work mine into some type of crack or into some type of indent or on a scrap piece of towel/rag and it works great. One thing I did notice is that on windy days it will blow over to one side so I do not leave it up anymore when I leave my shooting position. BANG BANG!!

I use bags for the bench, but love the mono pod in the field. Works great!
