Thread: Sighting in / handloads

When I get a new to me rifle that I've never shot before Ill usually buy a couple of packs of factory ammo. Ill get the same brand and if I can I'll get different weight projectiles. That gives me at least 40 rounds then Ill go and shoot them at a target,This does a couple of things. It gets me familiar with the rifle I can get it roughly sighted in I can see what ammo it prefers and Im fire forming brass for my hand loads.
