Long range precision rifle: the complete guide to hitting targets at distance - anthony cirincione

ABOUT THE AUTHOR Anthony Cirincione is a recognized subject matter expert in the setup and use of the Precision Rifle.

He is an avid Long Range Shooting competitor and has years of military sniper training and experience, including over 2 years of combat deployment time in both Iraq and Afghanistan serving as a US ARMY Sniper and sniper section leader.

In addition, he has a private training company that he instructs at when he is stateside.

IN THE AUTHORS WORDS While serving as the Sniper Section Leader of Tiger Force/1-327 INF/1 BCT/101 ASSLT, I put together an outline of concepts on which to train selectees who were slotted for Sniper School.

Another training outline I put together contained critical knowledge items that needed to be understood and implemented to allow the shooter to effectively operate at a high level with his team.

Upon leaving Tiger Force, I fleshed out both outlines extensively and saw that so much of this information could be extremely useful to the civilian shooter.

I remembered the struggle I had gone through when I was looking for information and coming up empty-handed many times.

That was the genesis of the Long-Range Precision Rifle.

THE 3RD REVISED EDITION As time goes by new information, training, techniques, equipment, skills, and much more are constantly becoming available to the shooter.

In order to provide the most up to date information available, the author has gone through the book and updated and replaced information where he saw fit to do so.

Any area where the information has remained the same was left un-changed by the author because the information is still as valuable today as it was the day it was printed in the first edition and time has offered no improvement upon it.

ABOUT THE BOOK The Long Range Precision Rifle: 3RD Expanded Edition contains the most up-to-date information and methods for getting the most accuracy out of your rifle.

After discussing rifles, ammunition, and optics selection, Cirincione outlines his tried-and-true methods of gathering and recording data.

He takes you step by step through the process of making your rifle perform to its peak potential through every shot.

He also instructs you on how to adjust for environmental factors and obstructions that lie between you and your target, and proves to you why handload.
