Will a rotating bipod adapter effect recoil?

[PinesAndProjectiles]

I have been looking at bipods that have a rotating adapter. If you load the bipod while the bipod legs are swiveled so that they are not square to the rifle, can this induce movement so that the rifle does not recoil straight back?

For example, if you are laying prone, and if you drew a line between the feet of the bipod, and they were not perpendicular to the rifle, could this cause unwanted movement once recoil has begun?

Or do I just need to shut up and send it?

Yes, rifle should swivel on the bipod for minor movement left or right. Extremely skewed bipod will materially change POI. But the whole idea is based on 2 moa accuracy so it just depends on how accurate you want it. 2 moa is the reality for quick shots sort of like hunting, PRS or battle.
