Good! Come back and tell us how you did the next time out! Also, try that when you store your rifle, as that takes all the tension off the firing pin spring. Some rifles will not allow you to do that, but you can close the bolt and then fire the gun with no shell in the chamber and doing that once in a while to let the tension off the spring normally does no harm. A shotgun should also not be stored with the gun cocked for the same reason.
