I hope to do better, I could not use my lead sled because the mag. would not clear the rails. Guess I need some 10 round mags.... 
Rifle ran fine, no malfunctions, I think the only malfunctioning thing is the operator....

Operating smooth out of the box like that I'd bet you have a winner, shoot the crap out of it! 
I use 15 round and smaller on my lead sled, the 20 will just fit but I have to adjust everything way up with no room for weight and then take the rifle out to insert or remove the mag.

Nicely done!
I might be inclined to say I was green with envy (if I suffered from that affliction), but I'll leave it at this...
You spent a lot less than I did and, assuming ten rounds, shot some initial grouping worthy of FBI standards...is that four rounds at 1/4 L and 3/4 U?!?

No, it wasn't 3 shot group. lets just say the target is a 9 shot group....

Okay, now I gotta know...What's your dad say about honesty? 
As others have opined, there's nothin' wrong with that rifle. You can tell by the lateral string, that's all shooter.
I'll be in your shoes shortly. I'm goin' from a tack-drivin' .308 bolt gun to an AR10.
I've never been satisfied with the groups from my semi-rifles. I'm hopin' to apply whatever I learn from the AR10 to my my other semi-s which, more or less, I just used to spray the countryside. It's totally me, not the guns.
Ironically, when it comes to pistols, I can shoot semi-s, on target, all day long...
But a revolver? Fuhgeddaboudit. Can't do it. <shrug>
