I'm going to get my first rifle.
I want something to shoot and am thinking about steel. What does /k/ recommend?
I recommend keeping your trigger finger free
If you've never shot get a .22 of some kind. Learn the barebones basics of shooting. Then move up to something bigger.
Cheap surplus is okay for putzing around, if you're serious look into something like a Savage bolt gun. If you want a semi auto, the default lowest common denominator would be something like an M&P sport AR. Or you can part one together. They're generally cheap.

Oh my bad, you literally mean what to get to shoot?
Get one of those hanging gong targets, or just go buy some chain and poles from a hardware store and make one with a steel plate.
1/4" steel plate angled downwards (so the splash and any large fragments hit the ground), is fine for .22LR.
Don't even need to hang it or anything.
Just lean it against a dirt berm; you can use the dirt from the berm to angle it. .22LR won't knock it around if it's about the size of a 15" monitor.

I use a tree stump as a backdrop and there is a hill behind it
Is hanging it angling upward a no no? It would be easier that way for me.
hey, /k/, can you recommend me some short semi-auto rifles? the shorter the better for easier storage

Haha actually just checked that out since I saw that Iraq veteran 8888 uses them. They have some nice looking targets but they are more money than I thought!
I really liked the little pop up varmint target they had in their video.
Shoot kids at a school.

Angling upwards can send shit into the air. Though it depends on how angled you mean. If it's flat enough to splatter the lead projectile and you do have something to catch the splash off it going up (tree), then it should be fine.
Just make sure the bullet is splattered or caught.

Take down 10/22?
That looks good.

Get a cute bolt action rifle or a 10/22. I'm getting a savage model 11 and 10/22 for my first(s).

The target packages here are pretty good, if you don't want to spend time building a stand.
