Minnesota's too cold,....You may need a warm retreat to really test it,....c'mon down and you can break it in properly, with sun tan oil..

As far as accessories, I would choose high speed low drag, low profile, optic and as TomB posted a bipod if from the bench, My Sig 556, has a NcStar Quick release bipod that has legs that ratchet up and down as needed, and it comes off with the push of a button.
Given the caliber, your range and mileage may vary with magnification options, but you've got a platform that will accommodate a 200yd zero, no problemo, down to "zombie" range within that.
Looking forward to some pics. Oh, and go pick up some Lotto tickets while your on a roll.
