What size gong would you recommend for practice? 8 inch? I"m hoping ultimately to get out to 300 if my scope has enough adjustment.

good on ya @wsm junkie . . . look forward to seeing your progress.
what sort of setup have you got at the moment ?

i like a BIG steel target to catch all of the shots with a small aiming square in the middle . . . spray paint it after every group so you can see the hits as they happen.
engineers off cut bin is where i got mine from . . weld some hooks on it and your good to go.

this is my smaller target . . . but gives you an idea of impacts when the wind is'nt the best at 300 and what size you will need to catch the bullets.
this is from back in the day when i would shoot 5, 10, 20, 30 round groups . . R
