Any thoughts on using a fclass bipod for benchrest shooting?

 I'm Curious to know if anyone has used a fclass style bipod for benchrest 25-50yd. Something like this

I have, but found it wasn't really necessary. I usually use a large ballhead and arca swiss mount.

I use them and actually now prefer them over my one piece rest and definitely prefer over the front rest and rear bag when allowed.

Thx

I am thinking about trying fclass pburner and hoping I could use the fclass bipod for some air rifle benchrest too.

What do you mean by "a large ballhead and arca swiss mount"? Do you have a pic or links?

I’m using that Tier 1 (aluminum) bi-pod on my ARA rifles but I’m usually too lazy to get it out for my airguns though. I wish they made a much heavier solid one from SS because the added weight would be my friend on the bench.

Many RFBR factory shooters use a Bipod, many of them win with it.
