This is the one I'd start with first. I'd then move onto confirming the rifles true capabilities. Shoot it as much as possible to confirm velocites and group sizes. I guarantee some days you and your rifle aren't going to be sub ½ MOA.
Then move on to shooting how you're going to in the field. Are you going to use an improvised rest (pack, off rocks, etc.), bipod, tripod, or sticks? Shoot at varying ranges and positions to know what will give you the most confidence for making a shot. It'll also give you an idea of what you and your rifle are truly capable of.
What you're trying to do is build confidence in you and your system. So that when it comes down to the shot, you've removed doubt in your capabilities. That will allow you to be more patient, and say "I got this" when the time comes to squeeze the trigger.
