[QUOTE="FIGJAM, post: 1540322, member: 71039"] So...i was taught that any hop usually has to do with technique, and you are trying to muscle or torque the gun into position instead of just acting as dead weight directly behind it. I am not a shooting instructor by any means, but when I was having issues with hop it was because of the way I was laying behind the rifle. Once I cleaned that up the hop went away. I use harris bipods exclusively. Also, I was told the purpose of loading the bipod was to take up any slack, usually harris’s don’t have much slack, so the need to load doesn’t exist...could be a bunch of nonsense from an older guy at the range I was shooting at, but it has worked for me.
