Default RE: Buying an NEF 223...which one?

Well, I went to the range today for the first time with this gun, Shot a few rounds, cleaned the barrel, etc., then worked with the scope a little, and tried two types of ammo. I really wasn't looking for great groups, and honestly, this is my FIRST center fire rifle. Anyways, I had some wild results, especially with Remmington UMC ammo. But with 55 gr. fmj Winchester white box ammo, I have a couple of groups of three that would fit on a quarter. One group at 50 yds, another at 100.

Next time I plan to bring sand bags or a bench rest, more of the Winchester ammo, and PRACTICE! I'll see what happens.
