Part of Wade Ingrham's process of building a firearm is to test fire the weapon to be sure it is functioning properly.  Wade fired the first shot out of one of his latest rifles.  He fired it from the "offhand" position, that is, standing with no support at a range of 20 yards.

Notice the "10" is shot out of the target's bulls-eye.  Wade said, "I guess it's shooting okay."  WA says, "I would say so!"
