I need to select a bipod for shooting my 308. Our local range is flat out to 200 yards. They have steel targets out to 1000 yards, but they go up the hill. The 400 yard gong is about 50' higher, the 600 yard is 115' higher, the 800 yard is 190' higher, and the 1000 yard is 374' higher. The hill starts behind the 200 yard line, so you're body is lying horizontal while the rifle needs to point upwards. I don't see myself building the skill to make anything over 600 yards worthwhile for a long time to come, and I'll be spending the bulk of my time at 200 or less. But, ringing the steel farther out is just plain fun some times, so I'd like to get the gear right on the first try if possible. I'm leaning towards the Atlas bipod, since they have the 3" extensions available. Should I go with the 6"-9" or the 9"-13"? I'm 6'2" tall, 175 pounds with a long neck if that matters. Thanks for any advice.
