I enjoy shooting NSSF Rimfire Challenge and also Steel Challenge. Since I started shooting rimfire about 2 years ago, I really do not shoot anything else. Shooting rimfire is so much fun and it is affordable. I have went through many guns and switched things up so much to finally get setups the way I like them. I would suggest to go to a couple matches and see what other people are shooting. Most people will be happy with letting you try out there equipment and tell you about it. I would see what works for you and what doesn't.
