I use Harris while hunting prone, sand bags on the bench as more stable than BiPod and shooting sticks for coyotes as not one type/size fits all. While Harris are also pricey never found pivoting Bipods that user friendly but that's just me.Mayor,
Thanks. I was looking at bags also but, the weight to carry around is an issue I think if I’m not at a range.
Was thinking Bipod to cut down pack weight.
Not many 6.5 available for sure. I had to wait for them to ship from another store.
Now trying to find ammo is another issue. Back ordered everywhere.
Location?Also, give Bob White a call at "The Shooters Corner" he usually has both new and used ones in stock at good prices. He is the Benchrest / F-Class Go to Guy I use the most.

Thanks Bob,All my custom barrels are cut rifling and hand lapped and neither manufacturer of the ones I use suggests any barrel break in. On a new barrel, I clean it, wet it, put three fouling shots through it and start shooting it. I do clean more thoroughly in the beginning, once every 5 shots than after that once every rotation (5, 10 or 20 rounds) or after 20 rounds.

When I get out there and get my bearings straight, I will give him a call. Maybe do a rifle class. I have only fired hand guns at the ranges over the last 3-4 years. Have not fired a rifle in 35 years!!His shop is at his home in Lake Haupachan New Jersey. He also runs a Benchrest Clinic and Seminar at Cherry Ridge Gun Club as well as a Summer League there and a Winter League at Mid-Jersey Gun Club. He is a great shooter, a great guy in general, a great smith and has lots of stuff.

Bob,I keep a one piece Dewy Rod in each of my rifle cases. I have a dedicated one for each caliber. Also have a bore guide for each of my actions. Keeps cleaning fluid out of the trigger and at the same time protects the chamber against aggressive cleaning.
