6-9 will be useless if there is any rough ground or high grass, good for bench work though

9-13 is pretty common and would be my choice. Its still low enough to be steady and on 13 it clears most grass.

13-23 is good for fields with high grass or rough ground although I find it harder to stay steady when leaning up so high. The advantage of 23 is that you can shoot from sitting down of kneeling.

9-13 would be my choice anyway.

id advise using shooting stick altogether but everyone to themselves
you can make rest for shooting off benches easily
the only thing that gets in your way using sticks is a ditch

I would agree with this I have the 9-13 on the .22 and 13-23 on the .270 and find them the right size for the guns but go for the swivel one it'll be worth the few extra bob.

+1 to what garv said.

9-13 is the better all rounder.
