Absolutely the best set-up for shooting off a bench is a heavy front rest and a bunny ear rear bag.
I've got one of each length Harris swivel bipods and find they work best when shooting critters instead of paper off a bench. The longest bipods can be used in a sitting position if you have to get above sagebrush or grass and the shorter ones work very nicely for prone positions.
