Hey John, I have a CZ 455 varmint in 17hmr with a Mueller APT 4-14×40 AO with target nobs. I was wondering what your thoughts were on using this system and caliber as a training rifle out to 200 yards thanks and keep em’ coming
It can definitely be used as a trainer for a larger caliber. You can run reduced targets and easily use it for barricade shooting. It could also easily be used to work on accuracy drills from prone. I have not looked at the wind drift of the 17 HMR, but if you can reach out to where the wind blows it around a bit, you can even use it for wind calls. Really the limit is your creativity.
Hi John,
Getting into some longer range shooting and would like to know more about bipod placement on a rifle. With an AR platform rifle, and a long lower rail section (or modular slots for mounting rail sections), what is the optimum location for the bipod (fore and aft)? General intuition tells me to mount it pretty far forward, but is there a method or reason for mounting it in one location or another?
Thanks in advance!
Seth
Forward for stability. Rearward for speed. It’s just the fulcrum of a lever. I generally prefer mine as far out as I can get it unless I need to alter than for a specific obstacle.
