Average Rating:
 Rating:  - a bit misleadingFor whatever reason, I thought this was a hard cover book and upon receipt, discovered it was a paperback. Though the recipient was happy with the book, I would have preferred to give him a hard cover version as he is building a "hunting/shooting library". Other than that, service and delivery was fine. Probably my mistake as I should have read the description better. Rating: - A solid book for the long range hunter seeking a lesson in rifle history.Dr. Van Zwoll is an expert in the field of rifles, shooting and certainly elk hunting. The books section on rifle history is awesome. However I think the book could have been better at articulating some if it's many good points with the use of good illustrations demonstrating them, but they were absent. There were some good personal stories that Van Zwoll shared in the book. The book also has some good b&w photos of rifles and hunting trophies. I also think the shooting tips are geared more towards ... Read More Rating: - Good info, but hard to findJust finished the book, and though I managed to root out a few very useful nuggets, I had to plow through a lot of less-interesting stuff to do so. It's not a bad book, but the title promises a different outcome than the book delivers. The first half of the book is a history lesson in cartridges and calibers, and I can't find much of interest there in terms of shooting help. Later, we get a few useful tips, but again, that info is surrounded by so much fluff and ... Read More Rating:  - Complete, reasonable and easy to readThis is the best book on shooting I've read in a long time. It's got a lot of highly practical information about how to shoot a rifle. The byline is descriptive and applicable: the book is mostly about how to hit what you're aiming at in any situation. Van Zwoll's writing is engaging, a rarity for a book on this subject. It's easy to read yet it still imparts information that will help just about everyone. I would have preferred slightly less dissertation on different kinds of cartridges, ... Read More Rating: - Should have been a bookletThis book has some really good merits. It does give you some good shooting tips. It talks about aiming, position, trigger squeeze, equipment, practice, etc. I even used some of it's advice last fall to successfully complete a hunt. The books not bad, it's just not great. At least, it could have been a lot better. Not by adding more information, but buy trimming -a lot- of fat. The first 7 chapters (about 1/4 of the book) are about the history of guns and various cartridges. Is it interesting? ... Read More
