    Er, most rifle ranges are flat and quite often sheltered.

    Go to where you normally hunt. Shoot at rocks, over gullies, in windy conditions, from uncomfortable positions, with vegetation in the way etc. Now imagine your heart racing, and the target moving. If you can reliably place a shot into a dinner plate size target at those types of distances, go for it...

    Or enter some gong shoots that involve medium range targets. See how often you can hit that size target in real-world conditions...

    You can get an idea of spin drift using JBM online balistic calc. Put wind at 0, and enable spin. Only really comes into it at longer ranges.

    To check scope cant, you will need a level on your scope as a reference, then shoot at a tall target, dial up at least 20 MOA.
