The CCI standard has had a good reputation for a while now. My Sako P94S has a preference for the high end Lapua, but, I get very similar performance out of much cheaper ammo, albeit with the odd "flyer". For practice and club days that is tolerable for me. I save the high end stuff for big matches and only then if I'm shooting well. At $0.50 to $1 a shot, they are expensive holes in the dirt if you're not on your game.

How's your trigger mate? Nice and light and crisp?IMO for offhand work the trigger makes a huge difference. Also don't be too hard on yourself, those turkeys are bloody small! We all struggle at points.

to me it feels great, im really happy with the ruger after the weekend just gone, next weekend im going to practice for real. i do think i need to make a couple of small adjustments after i was shooting out to the 100m, but they will be just a little bit...mostly its great!

Testing is fun too
Can you get any SK Rifle Match or High Velocity in your area?

I would think about a velcro attached "stock pack" rather than anything fixed by through the stock bolts, I put an adjustable riser on the young blokes Remington VSSF and it is a PITA to get the bolt out to clean the bore.
On his Omark 44 I used a stock pack and that is heaps better.

Twice as difficult if my math is correct
