Great shooting for the first time taking that new rifle out. We get guys with AR-15's and highly powered scopes who can't hit the target backer at 50 yards starting out! Now you get to figure what size ball, type of patch, patch lube, how often to wipe, what to wipe with, powder load, ETC, ETC. Make sure to keep that little spiral note book handy to record everything.
