    Fieldcraft Recoil off bipod

    Re: Recoil off bipod I ran some more tests last night. These were designed specifically to study bipod movement, so I got much more information. I did a few shots with rearward restraint only, to see how the rifle rotated by itself. I did get some hop, but not as much as I expected. It...

    Re: Recoil off bipod Well, if no one here cares about my dynamics work, then I guess there really isn't a point to my wasting my time writing it up, is there? Scott

    Fieldcraft Recoil off bipod

    Re: Recoil off bipod Check this Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRGdAu89N_A (How do you embed those?) Watch the guy's scope cap. At the shot, 0:20, there is no hop, but the rifle rotates. Scott P.S. Here is another one, from a bench. You can see the scope wiggle back and forth...

    Fieldcraft Recoil off bipod

    Re: Recoil off bipod Lowlight, here is another question for you, a completely serious one. We both know good form prevents bipod hop. What, exactly, do you do if you want to cause bipod hop? When I get the time I'm going to run another series of tests. I want to reliably create bipod hop...

    Fieldcraft Recoil off bipod

    Re: Recoil off bipod Why do people put Pod-Locs on their Harris bipods? Thats partly a rhetorical question, but not completely. I don't own one. So you have this extra weight on your rifle, and you have to loosen and tighten it every time you set up a shot. Sounds like a pain in the butt...
