Customer Reviews

Rifle shooting

Very detailed easy reading book. Great info for the rifle hunter or Hi-power shooter. You can never learn to much information.

Good book for long range HUNTING

The other reviewers apparently have alot more long range shooting experience... but I'll be re-reading this edition for years to come. No doubt Wayne has writing ability with a knowledge of the history of firearms to fill in the gaps. If your already an Avid Long Range Hunter perhaps this book is rudementary, but it offers good balanced view on what it takes for a clean kill out farther than a Midwestern Whitetail Hunter would typically need. I found it very useful.
