How to Choose Your First Rifle

Are you new to shooting and searching for your first rifle to learn with? If you are a newbie shooter, you may want a rifle that is light caliber and easy to use for informal shooting and to learn the basics of firearms. A .22 caliber is a low-powered rifle that is affordable and often thought of as the “starter” shooter for beginners. No matter what rifle you choose, be certain that you are aware of all the relevant safety features.

As a beginner you want your rifle to be easy to use and maintain. While you have fun shooting, you’ll also get more proficient with your rifle if you shoot a lot. You also want to think about what you want to use your rifle for. If it’s for hunting, for example, you have the option of choosing from rifles that come in numerous calibers. For example, a .22 rifle is considered a squirrel gun whereas a .308 is known as a deer gun.

When it comes to tactical shooting & competition shooting, a bulky rifle may not be the right gun to choose. For tactical target shooting, you want something that is short and easy to handle, with less powerful rounds allowing for improved accuracy and speed between stages.
