Well, I currently have my Remington 700 Mountain rifle, a leather military sling, swivels, a buttstock cartridge holder sleeve, and the Leupold VX-I 3-9x40mm scope. On the way is a 2-piece Leupold base and rings, Butler Creek flip-open scope covers, and some .30-06 ammo.
All told, I've spent like 900 bucks on this stuff .
Question is, should I spring for a Harris bipod? I've never used one on a rifle before...are they really worth the money?
As far as I know, the most common uses of a bipod are this:
1. Set/confirm zero in places without any benchrests
2. Shoot more accurately on quarry that you know will be coming into range
3. Look all "tactical" and stuff (I know people hate that word )
Is this really worth another 60-80 bucks? I'm planning to get a Model L Swivel Series S. Is this bipod suitable for the 700 Mountain? Am I straying into Rooney gun territory?
