[QUOTE="Nickie.01, post: 1834080, member: 79744"] How much shooting have you done? What everyone on here is recommending is excellent advice for hunting, but if you haven't done a lot of shooting, your best bet is a good .22. Everyone I know owns at least one, and learned to shoot with one. You cant substitute firing hundreds of rounds for target practice, hunting small game, handling, trigger control. A box of 50 rounds costs 1/5 or less of 20 rounds of any hunting rifle. You will learn to shoot without recoil and muzzle blast (or a flinch) and will IMHO be able to shoot better than someone starting with a hunting rifle. I also have lots of places to shoot with a 22 where the noise of my 22-250 isn't welcome. Happiness is a warm gun. [/QUOTE]
