What’s your optimum bipod height range for prone field shooting? Hilly grassy environment. I am considering a Harris 6-9” or a 9-13”

If real high a tripod might even be a better option. I would probably go 9-13" if you feel you might need the extra height. Do you have a bipod now? |

I run an Atlas prs with the 6.5"-9.5" legs, have had zero issues with it..if I needed more height, I would just buy the Leg extensions....

I'm 5'8", so 6-9s work for me. I have 3 Harris 6-9s and one 9-13 and the latter is just too tall for me.
My Sako TRG bipod seems a bit taller, at the minimum, but it still works well. Chris |

6-9 works well for flat or downhill shots but can be an issue if you have to shoot uphill. I have both and use the 9-13 more often.

Depends on how thick you are ;)
I use the 6-9 primarily but its always nice to have options for weird scenarios. |

I’ve gotten to the point that my 6-9 is for the bench only.
Whether it is elevation change, grass, or something else’s. The extra height helps get over it. |
