For more books like this, please visit www.SportsmansVintagePress.com This is a facsimile of the book originally published in 1927. When originally written, “Small Bore Rifle Shooting” was an attempt to amass as much knowledge on small-bore match shooting in one place as was possible. Described as a “double-barrel book” to appeal to both the novice shooter and the experience match shooter, this was a truly comprehensive book on match shooting. Rifle technology has certainly changed since this book was first published, but the book still contains valuable material for the small-bore rifleman. While technology has changed since 1927, fundamentals and physics have not. Advice on form and technique for hitting what you aim at remains unchanged by time. So whether you shoot an old falling block or a new match target rifle, the fundamentals laid out in this book are relevant. Additionally, the information in this book about trajectories and ballistics are also valuable to the modern .22 fanatic. The .22 Long Rifle bullet has undergone some changes since 1927, but 40 grains of lead is still subject to the laws of gravity regardless of the decade. Other sections of interest in this book include the chapters of forming a rifle team and a rifle club. The author includes leadership advice for managing and encouraging your team and for running a rifle club, including topics such as membership dues, the NRA, and constructing the rifle range. Whether read for its practical value to the shooter or purely for its historical value to the firearms historian, “Small Bore Rifle Shooting” by Edward C. Crossman is a fascinating book with much to offer.
