Thread: Explaining Brands

@Scouser has raised a good point, bolt action, single shot, semi auto lever action.... Presuming you are right handed which makes things easier.

When starting out I would begin with a bolt action 22 and get used to it and then move up to a centrefire. Reasoning behind this is the price of ammunition. 22 is still less than 20c a round, my 308 with good quality factory is $3.50 one good scope on the 22 can move onto the centrefire in the future.
