Don’t Rest the Rifle Against Something Solid
Never rest the rifle against anything solid or attempt to confine it rigidly in any way when testing for accuracy. An eight-inch bull at two hundred yards will be found about the right thing for open or peep sights, a telescope might be aligned on something much smaller. Naturally the distance at which you test the piece would be governed by its caliber and the purpose for which you intend to use the gun. Generally big game rifles are targeted at two hundred yards, small game at one hundred, and miniature at fifty yards or for gallery use at seventy-five feet.
