    Welcome aboard, @GreenHorn - great intro.

    Getting a centrefire isn't a great idea until you have mastered the fundamentals in a few different shooting positions. It is too easy to develop bad habits and the worst of those is probably flinching in anticipation of recoil. Rimfires are a cheap training platform and great fun in their own right. It is also a lit easier to find a 100m range than a 600m+ one as well. Good luck!
