tikkamark Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 good tight group you got there what type of bipod is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taffygun Posted March 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 good tight group you got there what type of bipod is that? I thought that was bad grouping tbh with better control on my breathing I know I could do better. The bipod is purely for the photo, its one of those JS Ramsbottoms econo-pod's....£8 I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taffygun Posted March 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 Dragon Mod. more info please. good going darren by the way. you will soon be good enought to go out after live gear. cheers Mark, knew I could rely on you for a buck me up...... tart!!! The Dragon mod is made by a local RFD down this way in sunny Wales. I have seen this tested side by side against the DM80, Sak and the PH mod and I gotta say its much better, well better than the last 2, slightly better than the DM80(IMO) but the dragon mod is half the size of the DM80 and only slightly bigger than the sak.

rarms Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 The problem with your grouping may be that the bipod is fixed to the barrel so the barrel is being pushed up by the weight of the gun. Get a harris style one fixed to the stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewyjack.22 Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 Nice gun and good group Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taffygun Posted March 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 sounds good darren. mayi know the price please. pm will do. The mod came with the gun when I bought it but I believe the price is around £40-£50 The problem with your grouping may be that the bipod is fixed to the barrel so the barrel is being pushed up by the weight of the gun. Get a harris style one fixed to the stock. As stated that econo-pod was just to prop it up for the photo. That group was shot from a bench but freehand(no benchrest), not from a bipod.
