what is a good begginer practice lock, pleaze reply

[carltonbcool]

I need something a little more challenging i have picked every single one of my padlocks around 100 times each. I am looking for a lock that is more difficult. I am only 14 so I cannot order online products. i also have limited funds and am willing to spend around 20$ i will even spend more if that is what it takes to get better but would like to spend less if its possible. I can get a ride to local stores such as wal-mart, lowes,home depot, ace hardware, ect. I have been able to pick a couple of masterlocks that have 4- pins and some other padlocks that also have 4-pins i am unsure of their brand though. I am new to lockpicking. basically i just want to build my skill at lockpicking. what are some good locks that i can practice with and build my skill. i am using homemade picks. would a lock with security pins be to difficult for me or is that what i should look for. also is it hard to pick tubular locks pin by pin. thanks in advance for your input. pleaze reply.
