Buy recommendations Suggestions For First Purchase

Hey yall, Long time lurker first time poster. After waiting my 6mths (thanks to the CFO here in ONT) I finally got my card in the mail. Looking for recommendations for a good starter purchase that won't break the bank. I kind of have my mind set on .22LR just given the cost of ammunition. Personally am not the biggest fan of leaver actions but am open to any input.

Thanks all!

I own a semi-auto, lever action and bolt action 22lr.

I would suggest a bolt action 22lr like a Savage MkII FV because its more accurate than a 10/22 and it can help you focus on the fundamentals of shooting. Plus it doesnt break the bank.
