For rifle you can look at CMP / Highpower as a easy way to start. Typical I see are $15 or less and under 100 rds, shooting to 200yds. I shoot a monthy one in the Springs for $5. You just need a military rifle with iron sights. I use a rack grade AR15A2 and sometimes a beat up M1.

It is traditional position rifle shooting, nothing tacticcool. For that look at the Tac Rifles matches by Hooser in the spring.

If you want to learn how to shoot that rifle with a sling before you head out then go to an Appleseed first.

$80 for a weekend, one running this weekend at BLGC.
