Thread: First shots from my new rifle. Ammo choice?

Shooting off a bench is easy so long as you have a bipod or a decent bag for the forend. If its a hunting set up, then use a bag. A sleeping bag stuffed in to its stuff sack works good, or a daypack filled with parka and spare clothes etc. And support the butt of the rifle on a small bag or roll of some sort. The Norma group looks like it has promise, but dont change position half way through the process. eliminate all your variables so you have some solid data to come and go on. I'd be picking a good day, go back to the range, getting yourself comfortable, and shooting a 5 shot group in about 2-3 minutes.
