I'm new to the sport of Highpower Rifle competition. In fact, I've yet to shoot in a match as I've only gotten truly interested in it a couple of weeks ago when my best friend started to get into the sport. I got this book from amazon and poured through it the past few days.

This is the first and only book I've looked at so far regarding this sport. Overall the book is very informative. It answered a lot of questions I had and opened my eyes about the intricacies of the sport. It helped me to decide that I wanted to get into it. I will get into the arena and participate in what I consider the most intriging sport on the planet.

Though a book full of wisdom and must-knows, it is also somewhat dated. The classifications have changed and there is a growing tendency to use Service Rifles in .223 Rem chambering instead of the .308 or .30-06.

I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to participate in this sport.

This book provides new, novice and moderately experienced shooters with a wealth of information regarding the sport of High Power Shooting. The book is very well organized, layed-out and written very well. Persons considering the sport and novices will greatly appreciate the basics that are presented and are easily identified. Additionally, lots and lots of details provide tips and suggestions for experienced shooters.

This piece looks at everything and is great for the beginner. It is full of pearls for the advanced shooter giving insight that you may not have had before.

If you are looking to start high powered rifle shooting this is where you should start. I visited different forums and asked via e-mail to numerous people. I was recommended this book by most of them and they were right. This covers how you get started to techniques and other advanced stuff as well.
However, this book is recommended for beginners to intermediate users because they will benefit the most from the content of this book.

This is the best book available for a beginning highpower rifle (HP) shooter, because it contains detailed information on everything you need to know to get started in the sport and progress to higher levels of proficiency.

The first four chapters (90 pages) are an overview of the sport, the basics of shooting the HP rifle, and finding and participating in your first match. The next fifteen chapters provide detailed information on every aspect of HP shooting including rifles, other equipment, shooting positions, and match participation. The final six chapters cover all aspects of training and becoming a better shooter.

Other books by champion shooters concentrate heavily on shooting techniques, and are well suited to intermediate and advanced shooters. There simply is no other book on the market which provides the new shooter with both the quick overview, and the breadth and depth of detail on every important part of HP rifle shooting.
