matt_hooks 188 Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 Springer and bipod. Universally regarded as a "very bad idea"! There are loads of threads on here asking the same thing. Basically the recoil works in such a way that accuracy is dependent entirely on a consistent hold, and a bipod can't provide that. Quote Link to post
tomburras 2,721 Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 just a quick question as anyone put a bipod on the tx200??? thanks for your time cheers lads iv not used a bipod on a tx but used to use a hw97k with a dragon claw bipod attached to the underlever it was one of these: My link i had to file about a mil off the top of the clamp so the underlever could close but to be honest the poi changed when i put it on and took it off and the groups where not as tight with the bipod on so i wouldn't use it to be honest. the bipod was quality and solid tho Quote Link to post

Karpman 44 Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) What about a bean bag? I have a rucksack full off beans from one inside sown roughly into and pillow case, The beans come from an old bean bag hanging in a skip used it for my photography here and there, Weighs nothing got a pocket on the front and sides for sarnies and a flask etc. I don't mind not looking a tart to much either, The softer material on the rucky th better ex army are great. But I love all that stuff anyway beats the hell out of chavtree imho. Just a suggestions, As you can imagine I look a proper nob when out and about lol Karpman Edit: not tested this on my gun in the field yet, Can't see why it wouldn't work.

pianoman 3,584 Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Anything like a beany bag, pillow in a rucksack, anything that comfortably supports and cushions your leading forearm while your hand supports the rifle forestock will do a wonderful job for your accuracy with a spring rifle. NEVER ATTACH A BIPOD to a spring rifle. Don't even think about it! Simon Quote Link to post
