I honestly know nothing of bi-pods. However, at the cost of offending a whole lot of folks, I would like to humbly suggest you fill a few cut off pant legs with sand or lead shot (14" to 16" will do). Put the bags just immediately forward of where the barrels screws into the receiver. When you put the rest/bi-pod/blocks, etc out towards the end of the stock, most factory stocks will be negatively effected which negatively effects bullet impact. And learn to shoot either the same way or slung up in the prone position.

I appologize if I've offended anyone, but I really do think bi-pods are truly meant for free-float tube type stocks and machineguns.

Edit: Yeah, a lot of bi-pods attach to the forward screw thing that the sling is attached to. You may have to get a different swivel screw- I can't remember what my 452 has up there.
