This is good advice, as I said earlier if you are patient you can find good second hand quality rifles, scoped and ready to go, for less than a new budget rifle.
PM garyp, the Brno he has is scoped for $700 and is the equivalent of a CZ550 which are $1700 odd new as a bare rifle.
I have just paid $700 for a Brno zkk600 that has fired 20 rounds and is like new, they are there if you look for them and ths would leave some cash for a cheap .22.

Choice is yours though, I went new rifle to start and ended up selling them and replacing them with old premium rifles!
