Carpet pads

Do they work better vs bipod directly on the ground

Yes. Years ago, I had issues with bipod feet hitting raised areas of grass. Many are putting this low pile carpet directly on a metal board to push down the grass, but watch the size of the board. I use flexible carpet only right now.

If you are shooting "tactical" style with something like a Harris, then add feet that dig in such as from Hawk Hill. If for something like Fclass, then something solid like thick plywood or steel to establish a flat surface. You will need to experiment with the surface; I found you can see the cross hair move as carpet settles so now I use plywood glued to steel. Some like a slick surface.

Whats the size of your steel plate ?

Bill I think the Ftr rules allow 2in wider on each side vs bipod, and 10in deep. So mine is 18x10.
