    Bipod fixed or swivel?

    Which one do you prefer a fixed bipod or swivel? I have one of each and still not sure which one I like better. Also not real sure what benefits a swivel has.

                  Why does everyone prefer the swivel?

                    Shooting prone on uneven ground requires a swiveling bipod to ensure everything is level... Just adjusting the leg length doesn't always work. Especially critical for loooooooong shots.
                    I thought all you Texas boys hunted out of elevated deer blinds? Just rest the rifle on the window sill!

                          I have seen my fair share of elevated deer blinds in Kansas as well.
                          As a primarily prone shooter, I would suggest the swivel due to the rarity of finding even ground to shoot off of. You can adjust it tight enough to not create a wobbly platform while still having the flexibility of swivel.

                              I'm just having some fun with you guys...

                              They are everywhere up here too.

                              Most guys don't even get to use them, however, as it's easier to hop out of the warm truck and shoot off the hood!
