    Welcome to this wonderful hobby / sport Jack and friend.

    And a very warm welcome to the BBS. Here you'll find lots of helpful and knowledgeable people dishing out helpful advice.

    Although I don't know your area and hence availability of clubs, visiting / joining a club is absolutely the right thing to do. Most are extremely friendly places and the experienced shooters will help you on the way with good advice on safety, technique, guns, scopes, pellets etc etc.

    Enjoy.

    Couple of clubs I know of in S. Essex, one near Tilbury (ETL) and the other over at Ongar (Springfield), both are welcoming clubs and have websites.
