While I love my AR for the price of one especially now you can get a darn good bolt action and scope in the same .223 chambering. You can learn to control the trigger, your breathing and given the opportunity you can shoot a pretty far distance with it. You don't have that sometimes automatic reaction of "shoot again" that a semi-auto has, and bolt actions even used ones are pretty easy to get right now compared to an AR. there is certainly nothing wrong with an AR choice but to me you are better served in the beginning with a simple bolt action rifle, then you can move on from there into a life long enjoyment of rifle shooting with whatever platform you like the most or better yet more than one.
