I’d like to get into shooting. Probably mostly going to a range maybe once or twice a week.

I’d like to mostly shoot a rifle, but I’d like some recommendations on - getting a firm footing on the basics (safety, storage, loading, cleaning, etc.) - whether that is via online resources, books, augmented with in-person training, etc.

Also when it comes to a decent rifle for eventual purchase - I’m up for recommendations.

    Thanks for all the info. Just to be clear, by “on the DL”, I meant more that I don’t want to put a lot of effort into presenting as some ammosexual - all the tacticool gear, the stickers, the flags, camo, and all the typical regalia that goes with being that persona, if you will. Although I typically do wear the same type of clothes - Carharrt, etc…

    If someone happens to learn I have guns, I am okay with it, I suppose. I’m just not going to be one of those people putting out a sign on my lawn about what a gun nut I am, LOL.
