Oly Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Don't know anywhere myself over there, but others will/should be able to help you out. Best to start on .22 rimfires and go from there. You can be under 21 to shoot a rifle (I was 13 when I started), but I can't remember what age you have to be to use and own one of your own. A rifle club should see you right (search on the BASC's website). Alternatively if your under 21 you could join the Air Training Corps or Army Cadets as they do plenty of shooting and will give you a VERY good grounding in handling, performance and safety. Plus they generally shoot for free (or VERY little cost). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
