Bipod and a rear bag.
I will show you how in a couple weeks. +1. I use a bipod and sturdy rear bag. If the rifle is unbedded, then I will NOT use a bipod. It can throw shots. I was sighting in a Rem 700 .243 last month and had it right where I wanted it, 1.5" high dead center, off a bipod w/ rear bag. Replaced the bipod with front bag and the next 2 shots were 3" high and 3" left. Had to re-sight-in using bags to replicate blind hunting. Gun will shoot great either way just not the same point of impact.

http://wiebad.com/zen/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=10&products_id=78I have three Wiebad bags, but I use this one the most. Not only for a rear bag, but for a steady rest bag when using some type of fixed object at various heights off the ground. The strap will let you fasten the bag around the barrel and stock just ahead of the front scope tube, which is where most rifles balance. It helps soften the contact of the rifle to the hard surface allowing a more steady positional shot. It is also just the right size for shooting prone or when I shoot off a bench at prairie dogs. This company was founded by two Texas shooters and they make everything un College Station, TX. got them today amazed at how well made and lite they are!! thanks for telling me about em
