A lot of weapons, ammunition, and 'scopes are not included. Important details, such as accuracy and range, are also not included. This book is suitable ONLY for very basic introduction to some sniping rifles. It is NOT suitable for serious researchers who wish detailed information.

Mr. Hogg, I was expecting a lot more from you! This book only generally discribes some of the most recent sniper rifles. Very poor descriptions and coverage. From a title like "The World's Sniper Rifles", I was expecting articles on Nazi Sniper Rifles, Argentinian Mauser snipers, turret mounts, Carcano's, Enfield galilean sights, Whisper cartridges, the MacMillan models... Very poor, really. This book is just for the begginer and the person that wants to enter the field. If you are seeking the knowledge of the above subjects, search somewhere else. But hey! It gave me an idea about a book I should write and one that you should buy!! ;-)

This book shows almost all of the sniper riffles new and old. this book is Excelent for people in the military escecially USMC. This is great for gun collectors.

This book is the absolute best in the area of sniping weapons. The pictures are good, the info is great, and the book is really up-to-date. Truly a good book!
