Look at it this way, you can buy a pistol from any of the main manufacturers take it out of the box and win the World Championship or Olympics with it.* Their performance and consistency is that good. What matters is how you feel with it.
Hammerllis are good, but they are essentially “club” guns with a slant towards the junior market. I have no doubt that it would probably outshoot you and wouldn’t impede your progress at least for a year or two. They are a cost effective solution for a first pistol. However as suggested earlier, if you can try other people’s pistols and find one you particularly like then look around for a secondhand one. It may cost about the same as a new Hammerli, possibly a little more, but would probably be a better long term investment.
*I should mention that about 5 years of solid training will be necessary as well!
