Do you mean as a competitive sport or just for the heck of it?

I can only get to practice at our society terrace , I get exactly 11meters to shoot at from one corner till water-tank wall and can practice in sitting position only. no competitive shooting.

Not very encouraging situation to go in rifle club, please share some good experience to counter it.

In a club league for me. It means it's not sanctioned, just informal matches every week. I have FWB 601 pump rifle and I'm only averaging 358 right now. I will try to take a picture of a match tomorrow.
