Q:

Shooting Bags for Bullpups

Any of you guys shoot your bullpup off of bags that you like and would recommend? I use a Harris bipod with the Cricket and was wondering if bags would be more stable.

Do you find the bags more stable than shooting from a good bipod?

When I had my Talon SS 22 I mounted a bipod on it and it helped tightening up my groups.
With the added weight it help reduce the muzzle flip and the added mass in the front just made the gun more stable to shoot.
In some hunting scenarios it does come in handy but for me just carrying the added weight just got old.
I ended up with it off most of the time.

So now with my BP I don’t use/mounted them, for now shooting off bags is my forte.
I also use a Primos Gen 2 Jim Shockey Edition Deluxe Tri Pod Trigger Stick, 24-62-Inch when pesting and great to use with a spotting scope.

If you do buy bags get them prefilled.

I bought a couple of different bags to try. Thanks for the replies.

I have a caldwell tack driver and prefer it over bipods. I bought it pre loaded and eventually took a bit out of it to make it easier to snuggle the rifle in. Then it is fairly solid and the bag turns easily. But, I also use a rear bag that can be squeezed to elevate the butt.

I have different sets because each bullpup seems to bench differently.

Im having trouble finding the thread. If you can post a link it would be appreciated.

If you do a Search there is at least one or more good threads on this subject from a year or so ago. There are some very good and reasonably priced bags out there.
