Ebook Long Range Shooting Handbook The Complete Beginner Guide to Precision Rifle Shooting Ryan M Cleckner 9781518654725 Books
"Fantastic book on long distance shooting. Very well explained section on what affects bullets in flight and information on how to apply it. His philosophy is to not sweat small stuff or over complicate things with to much information. Just do what's needed to engage the target with adeqate accuraccy, as quickly as the situation demands. An example would be in making adjustments using formulas. He tries to provide the easiest way to figure things out including rounding constants to make them easy to deal with on the fly without sacrificing meaningful accuracy. IE .5 inch off @ 100 yards by using nominal MOA value of 1 vs actual value of 1.047 (or somthing close anyway). That error is not much more than a bullet width shooting .308.
His tactical backround makes him a great teacher of hunters as well. Hes says "I'd rather have 1 MOA accuracy on time than a 1/4 MOA accuracy too late" that sounds like a great mantra for a hunter of any creature."

Long Range Shooting Handbook The Complete Beginner Guide to Precision Rifle Shooting Ryan M Cleckner 9781518654725 Books Reviews
- The Long Range Shooting Handbook gives a clear-cut, no B.S approach and explanation to the fundamentals of long range shooting. The amount I've learned from this book almost equals the volume of information contained therein.
It's reassuring to know as you read that Ryan is a man of experience unparalleled by other sources of information on this subject. As he mentions, his methods may start internet flame wars, but then, what do they really know? In this book, you won't find any useless, exclusive, sophisticated methods, but, rather, the straight truths and ways of the rifleman's art. Ryan learned this art in an occupation where his life and others' depended on the outcome. He is without question a master in this field.
Another thing to note is that many books on this subject which are introductory level, which the Long Range Shooting Handbook is meant to be, spend the whole book saying, "In (book, course, etc.) you will learn...," wasting space with useless photos, or bragging of the author's achievements. In reading Cleckner's book, you will forget it is even intended as a "beginners guide to precision rifle shooting." The cover should read, "An extremely comprehensive handbook guide to long range shooting." And yet it still remains accessible to the beginner.
With such a huge success in a beginners handbook, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming sequel.
You won't find a more comprehensive and valuable guide to the subject of long range shooting in layman's terms anywhere. Period. If you consider yourself proficient in rifle shooting, do yourself a favor and buy this book. You'll find important concepts you had no idea of explained in a way you will understand and easily be able to apply and take your shooting skills to the next level.
Another plus for Ryan is that, while he recommends products, he doesn't spam, and only recommends tools of genuine usefulness. I've read some books that felt more like a catalog. None of that here!
I could go on forever, but, I've got shooting to do. The Long Range Shooting Handbook will be the absolute best purchase decision you've made for you shooting gear bag in quite some time. You won't regret it, and you won't be able to put it down. - im not a beginner, but i figured i could pick up a few new tips and tricks from this book, which i did. mostly, it just helped reinforce that i was already on the right path. that said, it was still a joy to read. ryan is a great author, who knows how to hit every important point quickly and concisely so as to not keep rehashing every point and does so in a very entertaining manner. i dont think this book has really taught me anything to be a better shooter at my level (GREAT for a beginner, as the title says) BUT, i think it really improved me being a spotter, by his stories on how he teaches, which seem very common sense and effective, so my shooting buddies will probably improve greatly from my reading this! and either way, as stated before, it was still a fun, engaging read.

This guy breaks it down for the general enthusiast that has minimal or zero knowledge of long range shooting as long as you know the basics and are determined to learn more. and is definitely a must have for anyone looking to shoot long range or even that just wants to setup a good long range gun. the author has great recommendations and techniques and plenty of experience. I have learned so much from a front to back read and then skim back through it and highlight details. I use it at the range every time as its always in my gun case and I am about ready to move on to advance long range shooting. Without this book I would have been too indecisive to build my current long range precision rifle a Ruger Precision .308 with a Vortex PST 6-24X50 Illuminated FFP MOA optic and I actually shot my first moose with this rifle this year at 325 yards with ease (2017, Maine)
- If your on the fence on pick this book up, just snag it. I have been an avid shooter for sometime, only recently getting into PRS and thought maybe this book would be too basic for myself, I was wrong. Alot of things I know or thought " I had known" were cleared up in the long range shooting handbook and its not all written like a powerpoint slideshow. You just go through book front to back using index for quick reference. Even my bravo 4 buddies use occasionaly when something slips there mind. Scoop one up, its helped me steadily improve
- This book comes in handy if you don't know much about long range shooting.Easy reading and easy understanding.This is a perfect introduction for the people who wants to learn from scratch.The book has a website support for more question and more information there if you decide to go further.You won't find a lot of tables in the book.So you won't be confused by the information you don't understand.I would say after reading this book you'll be able to read tables diagrams and other figures that usually you see in handbooks.
I really recommend this book to a novice shooters.
