Never used one on big game  :dunno:  But I did purches a harris bi-pod S series for the AR. Seems to work well for paper haven't tried it on life targets yet.
Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

If you want to make God laugh tell him your plans.

I have yet to actually shoot something using them. But I carry them around.

I used to use the Stoney Point bipod and liked it. Now I have the SnipePod. It's a collapsable system that clips onto your gun at the sling swivel.

Since all our hunts are backpack hunts we use our hiking sticks as shooting sticks. Works great. Just another idea.
