My view has always been, if you aren't proficient with it you shouldn't have it. Unless just learning. So I get out to practice about once a week at the range. Above all though, as always, is firearms safety. Practice it daily please.
Geno,
IOR makes a hell of a scope, I'll be out at the OKC gun club tomorrow looking through mine on a 338 edge. There are comparable to Swarovski and other top end glass imo.
Wanted to take a moment and say hello to everyone. I've been having a great time here getting to take advantage of everyone's knowledge. Thanks to everyone for all the answer to the many questions I know will come soon. As soon as I get to know enough to ask good questions. :-P
