Once you have both been shooting the .22 a bit, you could ask nicely at the club or here, to have a shot with a few different calibers before you sink money on anything. Best done after you have already done a bit of shooting so you know a bit more about what you’re looking for.
I have a rule when I am at the range, that if someone offers me a shot with their firearm, I always accept. Over the years I have had and taken the opportunity to fire some very interesting rifles and pistols.
I also try and make a point of offering same to anyone who might get something out of shooting something different if I have something different with me on the day, or even just anyone who shows interest in what I am using, is usually offered a shot or two.
