This is old school, ~1904, but it's a free book.  Might be just for fun to see how the approach has changed.  Might still be good for Bullseye shooters.

Thanks, Alf.

To me, almost all books contain knowledge and free is better.   :)


Take care.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

Just had a chance to peruse the Kindle version.  Bummer is that all the pictures (figures) are missing.  While ALA talks a little about semi-autos (remember this is before 1911), he dismisses them as not yet ready for prime time target shooting.

Haven't gotten to the "shooting part yet".  Just skimmed the "guns" and "ammo" sections.
