Rear bag suggestions?

It’s actually a hard bottom, 14A

Yeah it's 2" shorter than mine I do believe.

2"×6" block of wood would get you there though

Did that. Would have been shooting under the target at that range.

I have to be missing something here. If the rear bag needed to be raised 2.5", that's the same as dropping the bipod by 2.5"...?

Can't say for certain but maybe the bench top is so low that the rifle needs to be raised that far so as the shooter isn't laying on the bench.

Kinda seen the same thing with people using leadsleds and then nearly having to stand at the bench in order to mount the rifle.

We can see the photo of the rifle on the bench in the thread, and the poster's claim was that he was shooting under the target if he lowered the bipod to meet the bag instead of raising the bag to meet the bipod. Changing the bipod height can't change the POI of the rifle.

. Changing the bipod height can't change the POI of the rifle.

What I see from the picture is to shoot as-is at 100-200yds that would be shooting over the target. So lowering the bipod at the front or raising the bag at the rear to level it out seems would change the POI. no?
