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.

Hi l can't help you with a club. but wecome to you and your mate to the world of airgun shooting. enjoy yourselfs when you find a club.
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.
Maldon and district air rifle club won't be too far from Boreham
Whether you think you can or think you can't, you're probably right.
Hi and welcome to the bbs
I am a member at ETL in Tilbury,it's a great club and does FT shooting as well as general plinking and pistol shooting.

Les..
Maldon and district is halfway between the two of you and don't forget Pete's airgun farm.
If you need any help with anything I'm in Rayleigh.

Maldon and district air rifle club would be ideal excellent zero range. Meadow and woodland courses. club hut. loos. 365 day access for members. With regular comps also
You could look at joining a smallbore club. Most have an air rifle section or you can shoot Lightweight Sporting Rifle (LSR) with your air rifle.
These are the clubs in Essex.
Most people would start with a pistol or a spring powered, clubs are usually used for golf....
Sorry just nobody had made that joke yet...
