Bags or bipods?

[babaganoush]

For strictly paper work from a bench, a good front rest with proper bag. If you plan to do any field shooting with a bipod, sight in with it as it can affect poi and group sizes. I know the theory of free floating says the bipod shouldn't change anything, but it can. Not saying it always does, but I have an ar upper that changes poi with a bipod. And I've seen some bolt guns that would not shoot with a bipod attached.

Practice using the setup you'll employ in the field. Also remember that shooting from a bench and shooting prone involve different pressure points on your cheek weld and shoulder. I've seen POI shift when moving between the two positions.

Insofar as which is better is concerned - I'd say whatever gives you the best comfort and accuracy. My results would likely not translate to yours, based soley on choice of bag or bipod.

More than just Bipod information there, but it certainly gives one much to ponder.
