I experimented with preloading bi-pod as well as super slick feet allowing it to slide. Did not see much difference really. Only time I noticed any real variation was when I tried to pull the rifle in either with the hand or with fingers on the front of the vertical grip. That sent fliers. I discovered I have a new question. Hope you all can help me out.
Using a light touch, I get the Natural point of aim dead on, close eyes, let go of gun, breath and when I touch the gun again and open my eye the cross hairs are still dead on. Here is the thing...
I get the POA right with a light hold, and then I fully rest the head down on the stock like normal the cross hairs float to the left. If I let up the cross hairs float back to the right to POA. Makes sense, probably Harris bi-pod contributing there, regardless....
I suppose the question for you all is what do you do when shooting for points, light contact to minimize input and find POA and shoot that way or rest the head to take tension off the neck and find POA and shoot that way.
Thanks for the assistance!
