You really do an excellent job of explaining these types of issues. I can tell you take a lot of time trying to find the right way of putting things into simple terms. I've learned a lot from you and have really enjoyed watching you and Sam shoot!
Since getting older and the advancement of arthritis, I have become a mostly a bench shooter. I want to continue shooting off a bipod as I have for many years, but since moving to the bench the accuracy has just not followed. This video was spot on, and now that I understand the issues I am having, I will be able to fix a least the major ones. Thank you so very much for this. Keep up the good work!!!
sorry to be offtopic but does someone know of a tool to get back into an instagram account?? I stupidly lost my login password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.
@Daxton Harrison i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
All I can say is thank you, thank you , thank you. You have given me more practical information in an understandable format than anyone else. Thanks again.
My local shooting range has wood benches. I lined up a 1" wood rail, screwed it down, took the slack out of the bipod legs, and went to work with my .22LR at 50yds. Ragged holes happen now when I do my part. The bipod was the last piece of kit I stopped from wiggling about. Yes, even at 50yds a loose bipod can wreck .22 LR consistency.
70 year old father-in-law and I moose hunt every chance we get here in Newfoundland. The past 2 years, I noticed that he had issues raising his firearm (as he often shoots from a standing position) - due to RSI in his shoulder. So, being the naive son-in-law ( in respecs to bipod usage), I bought him a bipod (figuring that he could just plop his rifle on it and take his game). Ignorance is not bliss. Thankfully he hasn't used it yet, and now I have the opportunity to learn more about using it in a hunting situation and perhaps prevent unnecessary frustration and unsuccessful hunts. I usually research a product and its proper usage before I buy it... sadly, not this time... and so lesson learned. In any case, thanks for the video... I've already learned a lot, and now know I have a lot more to learn. Luckily, we do have time before the upcoming fall season to prepare, learn, and become proficient. Again, thanks... and live well
I've always done better off of bags/backpacks vs bipods. Literally came across this video after putting aside 2 clamps and a board for the bench after watching your bipod preload video. Excellent stuff, thank you for sharing.
One thing that helps and I have shown and told people all the time. Front load the bipod so the recoil and rifle comes straight back, which dramatically improves accuracy. I see it all the time people pull the rifle into their shoulder, rather than pushing their shoulder into the rifle thus front loading it. Just one man's opinion. Once again another great video.
After watching this video last night i went to sight in my new Tikka T3x with new Vortex Viper PST gen.2 this morning and i did implement the technique of bracing the bi-pod against an object in front of its legs. It worked out perfectly for me! - Shooting off the bench in sitting position i have clamped a 2x2 piece of wood across the table giving me a perfect area to preload my bi-pod against it. The final group of 3 was well inside sub MOA so its it speaks for itself...thanks for your great info i've watched some of your content here and really like it!
Thanks again for sharing all this wonderful information! I have a heavy barreled .223 that was shooting great off the sled. The groupings opened up dramatically (went from shooting 5 holes touching groups to 3" groups) after installing a bipod. Now I can't wait to get to the range and try it out again with this information!
Great Video as always. You mentioned many issues I had noticed when bipod shooting from bench but have only recently starting looking for ways to minimize. Your video gave me a few more things to look to try to become a more consistent precision shooter. Thanks again I always enjoy watching your videos.
Gold. Such a useful video. I'm always off the bipod and to be frank, had no idea, nor ever been told about bipod preload. Can't wait to put these tips into practice.
Your videos are awesome guys. You present info in such a way that even a complete newbie like myself can understand it and hopefully avoid some of the bad habits when I get started
Today I was blaming my rifle, reloads and my scope thinking it was canted when I should’ve watched this video. after thinking about everything and watching this video you are 100% dead on. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain in such great detail and please keep up the good work!
Another awesome video Mark, I am new to bipods and have had miserable results, shooting off a smooth concrete bench... I am going to change that, and also deal with the muzzle jump problem I learned about in another of your videos. You are a blessing to the shooting world, imo. Thanks for all you do!
Great video! After sifting through all the TH-cam garbage it’s nice to stumble into a guy that can teach me how to be more accurate. Cheers to you guys. My mantra is “aim small don’t miss at all.”
Thank you so much for this! I am getting 1.5 moa out of my remington 700 in .300 win mag, and i knew that my bipod on a concrete bench was what was giving me issues but i didnt know how i should fix it. Ill try these tips and see how it goes.
This is all I needed to improve those groups which are already good at 150m. I just can't get use to bags since begining as those 95% people on the range .😂 Most Moa and sub Moa was on bipod but those wooden tables are slippery indeed.Many thanks for great advices. Cheers from Switzerland
Nice, Thankyou both. It is really nice to learn new things that help improve. I can’t wait to get back to the range and try out the knowledge shared here. Awesome 🤟😎☮️👍
This was a very useful demonstration. Im in the process of zeroing a new rifle and facing the same challenges. Hopefully this will correct some of the discrepancy.
As always, great video with huge amount of tips and knowledge! I read a polish benchrest rules, they forbid using anything can attach bipod to the table. But they say nothing about strap. This is definitely a game changer! 🎉🎉🎉
This video illustrates a valid and important point. If weapon control is not maintained throughout, it is extremely difficult to remain consistent. Bipod movement is relative to the recoil impulse of the weapon. Any bad habits, shoddy technique, etc developed with smaller caliber weapons will be evident and exploited once a more powerful cartridge is attempted. I personally shot .5 moa regularly with everything from 223 to 308 from a hard bench. I built and began to train with a MK 13 Mod 7 and was quickly humbled. Bipod movement was exacerbated with the bigger recoil impulse, resulting in erratic, inconsistent groupings. In addition, any lapse in fundamentals at the rear of the rifle also became evident. Given any chance whatsoever, the rifle would drop, rise, or fishtail due to insufficient bag/hook technique. Once I concentrated on bipod preload against a clamped board and heel stability, group after group was consistent. The silver lining to the 300 Win Mag humility lesson is that I now have even better results when I go back to smaller calibers.
I am currently having this issue. I bought my first precision rifle and did the same mistake. I shot sub moa groups and the next day 1.5 moa groups. This is the information what i needed. Cheers from Hungary!
Recently I was explaining this to a buddy. He said take a 2x4 and use clamps. Just more to pack but will make your day of shooting more enjoyable. (For the bench rest shooters. Great video mark
I love this video. Great stuff. Keeping it simple, logical and understandible even to a 6 yrs old boy or even me, :-), just as you did at 17:22: when you can put constant pressure on your rifle, then you can get a constant load ouy of it". Period! Thank you so much for loading this video up!!!
Was testing different ammo with new .556 upper, intended for groundhog use. And using a cheap bipod. Came in and found this vid and cut my groups in half! Thanks for your insights.
Oh man I think this describes my current issues perfectly, thank you for this! Just got my first bipod and have been struggling with having great groups followed by piss poor ones with the same loads and I'm left scratching my head because I don't feel like I'm doing anything different. I think this may be the answer I'm looking for! Will try out clamping a 2x4 to the front of the bench next time I go out and see if that helps
Shooting prone with the spiked feet in the dirt works really good but when I'm shooting off my bench behind the house I have a board screwed to the table so that I can really load that bipod up so that it drives straight every time. I was looking for a new bipod and seen this video pop up and had to check it out and it was a great one as always keepem coming brother!!
Thanks for the info Mark, as obvious as it seems in the video I have been plagued by inconsistent performance with my bipod rigs from a bench for years.
I’ve recently gotten into the accuracy game (getting .25-.5” groups with a Savage GRS in 6.5 Creedmoor) and have thought about adding a quality bipod. After watching this video I may put that off until I have a *need*’for a bipod, instead of just a *want*. Very educational video. Thank you!
thank you mark for this video...I was having great frustration with my rifle. you described exactly what it was doing. I will focus on keeping those legs planted. Really enjoy your channel and I share your information with other shooters.. Always looking forward to your next video.
Hi mark stumbled on this video by accident. Then it clicked... I know this guy.. its mark from the Mark's work shop video's that I watch and always looking forward for a new tuned and modded car videos. Just amazed how good you are at explaining things if it's cars or shooting.. wow Anyway... I was looking for a video on parallax adjustment and this video caught my eye .
Greatly informative video. I just started getting into longer range precision shooting and using a bipod to zero my scope. Of course my local gun range has wooden benches. Im consistently getting 1.5" to 3" 5 round groups but also getting random sub moa groups. I came into this assuming that a bipod would have little to no effect on a free floating barrel. Thank you for the info. I have some more practice ahead of me and hopefully the correct practices. Again, great info sir
Firstly, thanks again for the awesome content, I have learnt so much from you. After not having shot for a long time and now getting back into the sport and wondering whether the old school common wisdom was correct (some was, some was perhaps not so good). So now I would like to help those out there shoting from a bench, for a front barrier to the bipod legs get an appropriate length of 2x4" and a couple of adjustable clamps and go for it. The best thing is if your point of aim is off left or right you can make adjustments.
Great video!! The type of rest and the way to use it is in fact so important as trigger pull and clear sight picture at the scope. Another great one as usual! Cheers my friends!!
Hi Mark. Love watching you guys. I also love where you are. My parents live around the Bundaberg area in Queensland. I love driving there because of the scenery. It's just like your backdrop. I now live in North Texas, so it's not like what is behind you, but just as beautiful. When I started shooting, I couldn't afford to get something that is long range ready. So I started with an Airgun. Now I hunt with a .30 cal Airgun, I'm actually hunting as I write this. There are a few people that I watch religiously, and you, and Sam, are now up the top. I love the way you explain things, and also your syntax and soaking voice as well. Thank you sir, and ma'am, please keep it up. And if you want to have a look at my channel as well, please do.
Good stuff Mark, love your channel. This is something I learned the hard way. I was getting extremely frustrated so I started shooting off bags on a bench and bipods when prone. I'm able too shoot half moa and better at 1000+ yards consistently
Great video. The information about the "moment of inertia" is crucial. We are going out to 1k yards today with a .243 vs .308. I will employ a lot of this advice this afternoon. Thanks for the tips!
Great information , thanks I never thought my accuracy inconsistencies were caused by the Bipod . I will try the “Preload “ the next trip to the Range . Thanks for the Lesson.
Thank you so much for being so generous sharing your brain with the shooting community! I have always being lured to your videos for the skill factor. Now that I see you also share your knowledge, has persuade me to subscribe to your channel like they would say in your country, Cheers mate!
Thanks. I'm gonna take a tie strap to the range and strap it right around the concrete table at the range. Then load my bipod up against it. Put a couple small chunks of 1-4 to hold it up an inch. Should get nice even traction from that. I'll just make sure it squares up to my rifle. Cheers!
Ohh wow it just clicked for me. I thought it was something I was doing wrong… technically right just not in the way I thought. Thank you for the video!!
All the wrong way i know, but i got 1/2 inch groups at just over 100m with my friends tikka t3 .223 with Buffalo River factory ammo and all's I did was reach forward with my right hand and grab the right leg and preload it that way (im left handed). Any further than that and they would probably be all over the shop haha
Hi, thanks for this video. Now I understand well why sometime I do 0.3 moa @ 100 meters and sometime 0.8 moa. I will try the sling technic ;) Thanks again for this video.
What are your thoughts for the FT-R guys using Skis on the bipods? Also, I see some shooters at my indoor .22lr precision also with the skis on like the Tier One style wide bipods? I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around which is better as both methods seem to have merrit on paper.

I ended up making a webbing harness with bipod foot pockets that I could preload with my foot. This allowed me to preload the bipod on any surface.

I’ve recently gotten into the accuracy game (getting .25-.5” groups with a Savage GRS in 6.5 Creedmoor) and have thought about adding a quality bipod. After watching this video I may put that off until I have a *need*’for a bipod, instead of just a *want*. Very educational video. Thank you!

Greatly informative video. I just started getting into longer range precision shooting and using a bipod to zero my scope. Of course my local gun range has wooden benches. Im consistently getting 1.5" to 3" 5 round groups but also getting random sub moa groups. I came into this assuming that a bipod would have little to no effect on a free floating barrel. Thank you for the info. I have some more practice ahead of me and hopefully the correct practices. Again, great info sir
Thanks Walter, glad you liked, Cheers
Hi Mate. What stock and butt stock have you got there?
Excellent presentation, I'm looking forward to testing this theory. Thanks!!!

So that's why I suck half the time I shoot! I'll be using this information as soon as I can get to the range. Very informative.

Thanks Matt, glad you liked, all in the basics but not all that common in knowledge, Cheers
Very true. Makes a lot of sense, thanks
Cheers Ben
Thanks so much for this! Been trying to figure out why my new 308 build will just not do better than 1.5 MOA on the bench. This may explain a lot.
Cheers
Great video. The information about the "moment of inertia" is crucial. We are going out to 1k yards today with a .243 vs .308. I will employ a lot of this advice this afternoon. Thanks for the tips!

Thank you Mark; that was very good. Now to do some experimenting😃
Thanks, Man, Cheers

My favourite part of agriculture and gardening is planting the bipod seeds
Lol, cheers
This was incredibly helpful. Probably saved me a bunch of ammo and you talked me out of taking the bipod off- at least for now...
Great, glad it helped, Cheers
Thanks. I'm gonna take a tie strap to the range and strap it right around the concrete table at the range. Then load my bipod up against it. Put a couple small chunks of 1-4 to hold it up an inch. Should get nice even traction from that. I'll just make sure it squares up to my rifle. Cheers!
Thank you, yes that sounds like it would work, Cheers
With that information I feel I should had paid you for it.

Marks knowledge is insane. Since he shoots 2000m with no problem, I bet his groups at 100yds are 1/10 moa. Actually I bet he's never shot at 100yds

Ohh wow it just clicked for me. I thought it was something I was doing wrong… technically right just not in the way I thought. Thank you for the video!!
Thanks Kelly, Cheers
Excellent, thank you.

might take a 2X4 board and a couple of clamps to steady the feet of the bipod.....especially on smooth hard surfaces
That can help, Cheers
Thanks for the info!!!!!!

All the wrong way i know, but i got 1/2 inch groups at just over 100m with my friends tikka t3 .223 with Buffalo River factory ammo and all's I did was reach forward with my right hand and grab the right leg and preload it that way (im left handed).
Any further than that and they would probably be all over the shop haha
Cheers
Thanks Mark, cheers !!

Awesome Mark Thanks Heaps

Hi, thanks for this video. Now I understand well why sometime I do 0.3 moa @ 100 meters and sometime 0.8 moa. I will try the sling technic ;) Thanks again for this video.
Cheers Matt, glad to help.
Appreciate your videos!
Thanks again Kurt, Cheers
Use a piece of angle iron and two c- clamps clamp it down to the bench to use for a bipod stop
Cheers
Thank you

What are your thoughts for the FT-R guys using Skis on the bipods? Also, I see some shooters at my indoor .22lr precision also with the skis on like the Tier One style wide bipods? I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around which is better as both methods seem to have merrit on paper.
Different shooting form, we have a more practical condition shooting form, we use and prefer pre load, for all reasons explained, Cheers
Thanks! and Sub'd@@markandsamafterwork
Great video. New subscriber here. Would this also apply to shooting precision 22LR where the recoil is minimal?
Yep
Damn flies eh? Good video, great info.
Cheers
