Range of approximately 2300 feet, with a maximum range out to nearly 12,000 feet (!), no idea what the range increment should be.
If the M4 gets 200 ft., I'd give this an increment of 300.

It’s mentioned as being cumbersome, so I’d say it needs to be fired as a full-round action using the bipod. Does that sound about right?
Yup. One either moves or uses it, but doing both in the same round does not sound even remotely reasonable.
