Funny thing: the best I ever shot with a bipod was when I used it (with the legs extended and supporting the rifle) as a hand stop with a sling.

Bipods are famous for decreasing the accuracy of the shooter. Much of that is from the design, which allows the bipod to adapt to uneven ground conditions but in doing so its loose as if it was on a gimbal mount.

I was always taught to use the bipod as nothing more than a rest for when you are not shooting and to use you hands, arms etc to hold and control your weapon. You see a lot of MG's with bipods, but then MG are inherently inaccurate but make up for by volume of fire.
