I’ve been pretty set on using my bipod prone with a rear bag for most of my hunting/shooting. Decided to do some testing/practice at the range hoping to eventually ditch the bipod.
These are all shot with my tikka 25 creedmoor, alterra stock, maven rs1.2
First group is off a bench with rice filled front and rear bag

Next was prone in the dirt with small backpack, Mollinator on top, and jellyfish bag in the rear (starting to like this rear bag more and more). I had to stuff some things in the little daypack and it was not very stable. My hunting pack would probably be more stable.

Last was prone with gunwerks elevate 2.0 bipod and jellyfish rear bag. I adjusted my zero up .1 mil before shooting this group. It FELT more stable in the sight picture.

My conclusion so far is that I can shoot groups that are plenty good for long range from a pack/rear bag setup. Plus, it’s significantly faster to get setup..and one less thing to carry (bipod).
Next up will be larger group sizes, some timed drills, and breaking positions. Oh and my rokstock should be here soon![Thumbs up: light skin tone :thumbsup_tone1: 👍🏻](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f44d-1f3fb.png)
Thanks @Formidilosus for the stuff you post, it’s been challenging what I think I know and probably will make me a better shooter
