when new shooters ask me , " what should i buy".
i always tell them buy really decent ear defenders, you can always buy more rifles , cleaning gear, cases etc but you can not buy back your hearing!!

Thanks for all the comments and advice folks. That's a big help.

Shooting-wise we're very much at the walking before you can run stage. We'll be using the .22s at a local 25m range, mostly offhand. The full bore rifles will be at Bisley or maybe some of the East Anglia ranges, mostly prone or off a bench at 100-300 yards and possibly up to 600. This is a fun hobby/sport for us at this stage without much competitive element. Maybe later.

The FEO said a couple of the weeks Dell but you could be right. I wasn't expecting to see anyone for a few months yet, so I feel like I'm ahead at this stage. Expectation is everything. :)
