    Welcome to the forum

    For what it's worth, if you end up with a Ruger I found after trialling lots of different ammo it liked being fed CCI - I use subsonics mostly.

    There's a pistol range opp the Gladstone pub and Collings and Bradey in Costley St in CTN

    If you want a good grounding in the basics I can really recommend the HUNTS course run by your local deerstalkers - I know the local one here in the Hutt is good and someone closer to the Wairarapa one should be along soon to help with how their one is run - it's not all kids doing it, plenty of adults who want to learn

    You can find the manual to the course in the usual places

    If you want to learn Deerstalking then the books by Lentle and Saxon are great

    Good luck and pester us with questions, plenty of know-it-alls here who love giving advice
