Just jump into the rabbit hole head first. Much cheaper to shoot and get trigger time. And great for getting the kids to shoot as well, as well as getting the older group into shooting. Hell that would work for some of you old guys here ;)
Was shooting the panthera in 22 with the 34 grain javelin slugs. These guns are absolute power houses. They are extremely accurate when tuned correctly and a blast to shoot.
The fx true ballistics chronograph retail for around $1k. A very nice piece of kit as well.
How much do you want to spend?

There are plenty, it all depends on how much you are willing to spend.
I just bought a case of sk match the other day. I know bullet central had some the other day. That's where I got my case from.
You have to look around and put your name on the notification list for when it comes in. Then be patient and quick when you are notified.
Running a 22" Bartlein barrel, KRG Whiskey 3 stock, Element Theos scope. Loaded up ready to go, just a shy over 17lbs. He is hefty but stable and balances well. Buddy has the same build minus the stock. He is running a foundation and his is the same weight.
Send them back to Africa then... but they can never come back.
Fairly certain all the food stamps, black only colleges, black only loans, preferential treatment.... they have gotten their "reparations" already
Yes that is the Panthera.
And Kevin was wrong on a few things about the rifle as well ;) The BC of a pellet is not 0.4 ... it is more like 0.04 and that is a huge difference.
Both of them are good actions, and you can build about anything off of them.
Get one and build the gun that you want. You really can't go wrong with either of them.
I just got done building a Rimx that I paired with a 22" Bartlein barrel. Sitting in a KRG Whiskey 3 stock she is quite heavy but manageable.
Haven't had a chance to shoot the gun yet as it has been far to wet and rainy.
Rifle finally together
KRG Whiskey 3 stock
Bartlein 1.20 barrel
Hawkins rings
Element Theos scope
Can't wait to get her out and shooting this weekend. Hoping it shoots as good as it looks.
*EDIT*
Was able to get out and shoot 50 rounds through the new rifle. At 50 yards it was boringly...
Ended up 11th place. Not to bad, still have room to improve.
No real pictures of me shooting, but there are some good videos out there on Instagram of the shoot.
