Macros aren't really useful until maybe the MM rotation...
But this is what I do for a BM rotation:
Start off with auto shot, immediately after steady shot, let an auto shot run, then immediately after steady shot, rise and repeat. Very simple.
What you should see is that every steady should should be immediately following by an autoshot, since your autoshot timer will run while your casting steady shot, if your more of a visual person this is what it will look it:
auto>steady, auto> auto> steady, auto> auto> steady, auto> ect ect.
Notes:
-Make sure you start your steady shot immediately after your lone auto shot, or it might stop your 2nd 4th 6th ect auto shot from casting on time, which will gimp your dps in raiding situations.
- When you get better at this rotation (should take you all of 5 mins), you can throw in arcane shots and multi shots with your lone autoshots, so it might look something like this:
auto> steady, auto> multi, auto> steady, auto> arcane, auto> steady, auto> auto> steady, auto> multi, auto> steady, auto> arcane, auto> rinse and repeat. Note that I left an auto in the middle by itself due to multi shot cooldown. I wouldn't suggest using this kind of rotation for a long boss fight, as you will run out of mana half way through, but its great for when you need burst dps, or in a timed fight. For long boss fights i would throw in an arcane and multi shot every three or so rotations, and have aspect of the viper on.
-I find when I pop rapid fire that pairing every autoshot with a steady shot is better than every other...so something like this Rapid Shot>steady,auto>steady,auto>steady,auto>ect, ect>End Rapid Shot> Back to normal BM shot rotation
-If you don't already, download and addon that gives you your autoshot timer, and casting timer for steady shot, this will help a lot for learning the timing, and how you can twink it to suite you best.
Hope this helps.
