For the fundamental rifle marksmanship, iron sights are fine. Look into Appleseed rifle marksmanship. For your age it would be free and the 22 is all you will need. IMO, a low powered fixed scope in the 2.dx to 4x is all that you need for a hunting rifle. I've shot out to 400 yards at steel with a simple crosshair scope and didn't feel the need for mil dot or MOA reticles.
