We have a match next Sat and will have 3 MTR's equipped with the Mystic
So far so good in testing vs Harris style--The Atlas ( after removing the rubber feet) is better on fore and aft movement but still not near as good as the Mystic.
We were disappointed that EGW does not offer any discounts--they had a 10% off labor Day but did not include the Mystic--will let you know!
I think shooting prairie dogs off a bench it does not matter that much anything will do but..when we entered the world of 50yd bench shooting with these crazy 22's it became ( besides ammo) the number one thing to overcome. I even had the very nice Randolph Rest for a short while--it is amazing unit but it did not improve my scores and I found the adjustments during a match tedious compared to the ease of a bipod--we have been shooting within a few x's of the best at out match and I like the look on their faces when we do well with the bipods

How would a MTR shoot with aluminum pillars installed & full action bedding???
Would this keep the accuracy on par??

I did the full bedding on my MTR and did the aluminum pillar thing on several others. I did not keep detailed before and after comparisons but I am convinced the alum pillars improve match to match accuracy and consistency. Personally can't tell the difference in the full action bedding with alum pillars or just replacing the plastic pillars with alum. If you go to a BR Match and see what the Unlimited guys are doing you will find close to 100% of the serious shooter do the full action bed so that should make a statement as to the effectiveness of the full bedding on a rifle.

I agree
I bedded and pillared my old CZ 457 At One and it helped--The At One stock had so very little contact--But...The MTR's are shooting so good I am reluctant to do anything at this point--a Killer lot of ammo erases the doubts --A killer lot of ammo makes shooting high scores Easy as pie and proves to me all the worry about the little "other things" is just a head game and small proportion of what it takes-- Every single time we get that Excellent lot of ammo all other problems just disappear and shooting becomes so much easier and all the concern about trigger pull, cheek weld, etc etc just vanish as the X's ( and smiles) appear

Victor Company you can drill the stock and screw it down or I put a piece of double sided tarp down and put it on that way the top pad is a Anarchy, outdoors, chick pad.

I have to say we tried the EGW Mystic Bipod this Sat at our tough match--In testing it was awful on bare bench, not much better on towel-but after slipping a piece of thin rubber yoga mat under it that thing started to WORK! ZERO for and aft movement--I won factory on our clubs small bull target ( like green monster) 500 with 32x These bipods are game changers boys!
