Personally I reckon it would be better to set up some gongs (5" size) or thereabouts at 100, 200 and 300m get a good steady rest as best you can and see if you can hit them with reasonable consistency.
Haha, yeah roger. It is one of those flexy Hogue stocks.
Thinking about making it more rigid with some epoxy like I've seen on some YouTube videos. Just prevents it from contacting the barrel at the fore end and gives it a more solid feel too. Ideally, I'd just swap the stock out for something better, which I may do in time, but if I can get it shooting well now I may also not bother and put that money into another rifle.
I'd love to test out the gongs, but my local range is pretty particular about how practice days are run. I reckon if I asked it would be a straight up "no". But I can hit as much paper as I want, provided it is at the predetermined range for that days practice.
Cheers for all of the advice so far, it is very much appreciated.
