I’m looking to get into competitive shooting but I have no idea where to get started. I’m very interested in rifle shooting but I am also interested in other disciplines as well. Any help would be appreciated.

Looking to get in to competitive shooting

Rifle competitions are just as varied as pistol. From High Power to the Precision Rifle Series, even a .22LR variant of the PRS matches. Pistol from Bullseye to IDPA and USPSA, then Steel Challenge to even some bowling pin shoots. Add a shotgun and now you have 3 gun as an option.
Questions can be answered on where to start, if you have an idea on what you want to shoot.

It’s more a marksmanship training than a competition but Appleseed shoots are great way to improve rifle marksmanship. You are competing with yourself. A number of shoots next month. Fun outings. Google project Appleseed.
Where are you located? What caliber rifle interests you? If vintage iron is of interest, try a CMP M1 Garand match. Some of the clubs have club rifles that are very good shooters, so you can learn with decent equipment.
