i do not currently do any competing.It looks like you're building a PRS gun. Are you going to do PRS competitions at all?
I'd probably go with a AccuTac, Atlas, CkyePod to play in those games.
If you're not going to do PRS stuff, then I'd prefer a good front rest.
To me its not one or the other. I have nice bipods and right now a cowan rest while I wait for my Seb.
But it's more about which one do I use for which activity.
I shootthanks, shooting will be off a bench 99% of the time.
this is my first custom rifle, and i want to try and get as much out of it as i can
this is the build, i did go with a foundation genisis 2 and the tenmile 5-50
started ordering parts
so i finally decided to dip into the world of custom bolt actions i pre-orderd an ARC Coup De Grâce Already talked with Southern precision, i will have the action sent to them, to fit a 24" M24 profile Brux it will be chambered in 6gt now to decide on the rest i am thinking: TT diamond trigger...forum.accurateshooter.com
I have a very similar setup to yours, and have done very good @600yds with it. I use an atlas bipod primarily, with an protektor angled rear bag.thanks, shooting will be off a bench 99% of the time.

i do not currently do any competing.
the only place withing hors of me i can think of that has any competitions is bridgeville delaware, and i think thats all bench type
i may try it one day
arca rail alrady ordered, will be here saturdayOne way or the other, if not already equipped, put an Arca rail on it, works with the bipod and works on the bags as well.
it is a 3" for stock, foundation genesis 2My experience has been, unless you are shooting with a 3” flat fore stock and have an appropriate bag on your rest, a bipod works better. JMO
I agree. I can shoot my hunting rifles better from my M-pod than the front rest even with the appropriate front bag.My experience has been, unless you are shooting with a 3” flat fore stock and have an appropriate bag on your rest, a bipod works better. JMO
Do you mean carpet under the bipod (feet)?I could shoot any of my hunting or Varmint rifles as well or better off of a Harris bipod, which despite its modest cost is still my favorite bipod. ... I do shoot with a piece of carpet under the forend,
Yea I just said forend because it starts at the front of the rear bag and goes beyond the bipod. The rifle can recoil and still be on carpet.Do you mean carpet under the bipod (feet)?

I do something similar. Our range has smooth concrete bench tops. I have a rectangle of thin textured plastic (light fixture cover) which allows the rubber bipod feet to slide.Yea I just said forend because it starts at the front of the rear bag and goes beyond the bipod. The rifle can recoil and still be on carpet.
