References & Resources for Rifles & Target Shooting

 

The New Position Rifle Shooting: A How-to Text for Shooters and Coaches
by Frank T. Hanenkrat - Top notch book on everything you need to know about shooting Rifles. There is an excellent section on breathing technique and entering the "flow" state. The book is available on www.amazon.com

Birchwood Casey Shoot•N•C Targets -  Birchwood Casey manufactures a wide range of targets, including patented self-adhesive Shoot•N•C® targets that explode in a bright, fluorescent green ring of color around each bullet hole. These are a very cool item and I found them to be the easiest to sight with.

Pro-Aim  
Pro-Aim introduces a remarkable, patented, assist for the shooter to obtain the desired results through the application of an unobtrusive stiffening splint in the base of the glove that extends to the wrist thus creating, in essence, a 'bench rest in a glove.' It thereby enables the user to easily acquire targeting and aids in retaining a steady grip while the weapon is discharged. Accuracy is substantially improved.
