About this title

Synopsis

A portion of this book's proceeds is donated to two military charities: the Special Operation Warrior Foundation and the Sua Sponte Foundation.

This book is the complete beginner's guide to long range shooting written in simple everyday language so that it's easy to follow. Included are personal tips and best advice from the author's years of special operations sniper schooling and experience, and as a sniper instructor.

This is the preliminary book to help you understand fundamental concepts such as MOA vs Mils and external ballistics, that can be like a trusted resource at the range.

If you are a brand new shooter, this book will walk you through the basics, help you make decisions on rifles, optics, and gear, and start you out with a solid foundation that will give you confidence as a new long range shooter. If you are an experienced shooter, this guide will be a resource and reference covering the principles and theory of long range shooting.

Learning to shoot long range isn’t that difficult!

Once you understand the basics, you can start to master your technique and you’ll be hitting targets in no time.

The author has a series of online instructional videos known for their ability to take seemingly complex areas of long range shooting and break them down so they're easy to understand. This book was motivated by the feedback from those videos.

The handbook is broken down into three main categories:

1. What it is/How it works,
2. Fundamentals, and
3. How to use it.

"What it is/How it works" covers equipment, terminology, and basic principles.

"Fundamentals" covers the theory of long range shooting.

"How to use it" gives you practical advice on how to implement what you've learned so far to make you a long range shooter.
