In response to your question ... a 22LR is a good option to start with yes ... its a very mild to no felt recoil ... the ammo is by far less expensive then centerfire rounds. And the 22LR is just fun to shoot.
A great place to learn the basics and get lots of practice in.
And I see reading your post you are thinking of buying a 22LR rifle before buying any handgun? ... If so there is nothing wrong with that either ... you can learn gun safety and how to breath and squeeze the trigger and enjoy learning how to shoot.
And after you get some practice time with that if you want to move to handguns you can go with a bit more confidence and find a handgun that you'll enjoy shooting too.
A Ruger 10/22 is about as simple and inexspensive as a 22LR rifle comes and would be a good choice for a first firearm.
