Book Reviews of Dead On: The Long-Range Marksman's Guide to Extreme Accuracy
Book Review: Great for beginers
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a great book if you are just getting in to long range shooting. It covers the basics of long range shooting, rifles and extra equipment as well as a suggested distance to zero. It is a small book in volume and size. It can fit in your cargo pocket and it only took me a couple days to read it. There are a lot of other books out there that cover long range shooting and sniper shooting, but many are so in depth that it can be difficult to know where to start. Take zeroing, if you talk with a hunter, he'll likely tell you to zero your rifle at 200 yards. If you talk to an Army Sniper, he'll likely tell you to zero your rifle at 300 meters. If you talk to a Marine Sniper, he'll likely say 600 meters (at least that's what they all told me). So, where do you start? This book talks you through a 100 meter zero. Once you gain experience, you will have the know how to choose what is best for you. It also covers the proper way to mount a scope, if you're so inclined. If you are just getting into long range shooting, this book has a lot of great, basic information so you don't get lost. If you've never shot before, especially long range, this book might just inspire you to get into it. After 10 years of being away, this book inspired me to get back into long range shooting.
