I am a Bi-Pod shooter. My main game is Varmint shooting and Target
For my applications and hunting, a rifle isn't worth having unless I can shoot it off Bi-Pods.
So you can feel my frusteration I have had with the Handi rifle. Seeing that they are very pressure sensitive on the forearm.
I go to thinking, the Handi almost always shoots better when supported under the reciever..Why not move the Bi-Pod back as far as possibile on the forearm?
I looked in my cabinet and found an extra pack of Uncle Mikes sling swivel studs laying around.
So I went and got my drill and some bits, and an adjustable wrench. Drilled a hole about 1/2 to 3/4 and inch from the rear of the forearm. And screwed in the stud. I was afraid how it would look, but I like the way it turned out. It's very compact and the Bi-Pods don't extend past the end of the forearm.
I have cleaned and polished my bore, floated my barrel and I am off to my range today to see how it performs. I will come back with pics and keep you posted.
By the way I am taking my 30-06 UltraComp and my 223 bullbarrel.
I didn't know if anyone has tried this before, but I am guessing they probably have. But I haven't...so there :grin:
