Truth! During a week long shooting class I was using a factory savage accustock. It hated a bipod, but loved the bag. It was replaced with a HS-Precisin stock and now all is well, but now I like bags more

Get behind a 7 Rem Mag or a 300 Win Mag and you'll be wishing you had your bipod back.Especially on the deck or bench. There is angle iron at the end so you can load the bipod. Front bags make you feel more of the recoil because you can't load.

I told Judd and Chad the trigger control (or lack of) was driving me nuts! Heck I saw some guys with daylight between their finger and the trigger. I wasnt even looking down range most of the time. I'd see a trigger get slaped and think "theres a miss", sure enough Judd wouldnt call impact. Chad and I talked about this about 3/4 of the way through the match. And both of us had the same thoughts on the matter. Let em shoot, critique later.

I've seen PRS shooters break their cheek weld to cycle a rifle. They want to watch the cartridge go into the chamber. Why? You'll feel if it picked up a cartridge or not. Let the machine do its job. If it didnt pick up a cartridge then deal with it. Until then MAINTAIN CHEEK WELD!!!

I had mentioned something similar during the match. The few guys not using bi-pods, including the guy with the 300WM, were at a disadvantage on the Farris Wheel stage where you need to maintain cheek weld, cycle the bolt, keep the rifle on target, and get that next shot off quickly. Not being able to load the rifle/bipod, every one of them had to re-adjust for their next shot and weren't able to get back on target quick enough to get that next shot off and keep the momentum going on the target.

Learned a few lessons from this match:
1) trying to add a bipod in the middle of a match, never having had used one before was not a good idea.
2) having to get back on target was not easy under some of the time constraints firing a 300WM
3) not sure how I fared with trigger control but did find myself coming off my gun more often than not to either cycle a round or load

I love free advice! being self taught, information such as this is invaluable. Thanks

I think it was a good learning experience for most of us! I know I learned quite a bit!

His monotone lull you to sleep?

Wasn't like an announcer at the World Series huh?

Oh no chad let's just say he gets "animated" when he sees beautiful trace haha.

He'll probably go viral when the video comes out.

Chad is better than any announer at any WS....Jason said it "Best RO in the history of RO's". It's the animation and excitement, it just adds to the fun.

Thanks, guys!!!

Though I'm not so sure that replacing "IMPACT" with "WHOSE YOURE DADDY?!?!" would go over so well in an official shoot scenario

MISS, A little lo.....Err SEE WHERE YOU HIT? MAKE YOUR CORRECTION, MAKE YOUR CORRECTION. IMPACT!!! Good Job making your correction!

It was great having Chad RO stages!

Lol, think I'm going to autotune and remix him when the video comes out HAHA.

Shooter ready? Ok, here we go! Here we go!

IMPACT! That-a-baby!!!

You forgot to scream "gun" like a mad man. Or "nice recovery" after a hit. He was definitely the best RO to listen to.

" you got a great group going"

That hurt deep dee

I forgot about the "GO ON GUN.......GUN" That dude is money!

You needed more "beautiful trace"!

Jason, did you ever get the video and pics from the guys with the drone?

Not yet. I just sent Garret a text, inquiring.
