That said Scotty87 I went in wanting to buy my first rifle, a .22 and the salesman was such a rude prick sarcastically asking if it was for my girlfriend and continued to say he started with 308's and 243's as if to big note him self. Needless to say he didn't get any of my money.

Do I need to break in the barrel?

For those of us that don't shoot at official targets, what does "shooting 10.5+" mean in minutes or millimeters?

Is there a law for when you can go out shooting on your own land say for example I want to go out at 2am. I got a caravan on site and was sleeping one night and at 3am was hearing gun shots and it honestly scared the s**t out of me because I didn't know which direction it was coming from and didn't want to take a hit.
