This a dumb question but I am clueless so here goes.  I got in a choate tactical stock yestarday for my savage 110 and it comes with a rail on the bottom for a bipod. The peice that slides down the rail that the bipod attaches to does not have anyway to tighten to the rail so it does no slip. Is this the way it is suppose to work or am I missing something? Is it designed so that the bipod is carried separately and then just slide it on when you need it? Seems like there should be some way to clamp it down so it does not slip.

Your missing a wing nut/bolt that tightens that rail down.  should be an empty threaded hole on there.

On mine,once you tighten the bipod down to the stud, the piece does not slide in the rail. But if you loosen the knob a bit you can quickly adjust where the bipod is in the rail, and then re-tighten.
If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?
