   If you put the NF on your .22, it will be a good one for the initial practice that people have suggested, it will be a bit marginal for the longer stuff that you want to do with the 6.5, but you can...

   If you already have those scopes then I'd start off with the SHV 3-10, that will be more than enough to get you started. Basically any range that you can shoot 100-200m is going to be good for 22lr,...

   You can start here. Many of your questions will be answered through demonstration. Unlike most LR courses, this one is free https://youtu.be/w8aJUkvoWzU

   I'd say there are two legs to the story. 1) learn to shoot well. That means an accurate 22. Learn trigger control and shot management, then positional shooting. A 22 will show any flaws in your...

   Second for Nathan's books, very much underrated. Rifles come and go, good glass is here to stay. Tibosauraus used to have a fairly good Playlist called long range 101, I see it's gone now.

   There are other ways to begin too. I started with an off-the-shelf Savage Model 12 in .223 with a 2nd hand scope, 2nd hand bipod and rear bag shooting FTR on a NRANZ affiliated range. Some help...

   This is a great idea, a T1x is a great place to start. The factory stock can do with a few upgrades in time (I could probably help you out with a few accessories) but they work great to start with....

   I think you’re now on the right track. Gaining confidence in your rifle is important, shot placement shooting a rabbit will gain confidence, knowing the sound of a neck shot to head shot & the...

   Both good choices. When you get a 22 buy a few different brands off ammo to see what your rifle likes, it will likely shoot one better than the other.

    That is a logical and robust route to pursue. You won't waste much money with that plan. Nathan Foster is the man who literally wrote the book on long range shooting, have a read through his...

    As above 22LR is a great introduction and training for long range centerfire. You get to practice your fundamentals, trigger control and wind calls at a shorter distance.

    Learning to shoot long range as a first shooting discipline is a bit like learning to drive in a F1 race car. While there are actually some benefits to starting from scratch (like not having to...

    There’s also the Akarana range south of Clevedon towards Kawakawa Bay which has 400-700 yd range. But first get proficient at 100 & 200 yards. Understand the capabilities of your rifle & your own...

    22LR is a great place to start out - just make sure you get a good rifle with a great trigger. 22LR can be practiced at smallbore clubs (Manakau Sporting Rifle Club would be an excellent start). ...
