Odyssey |

Steve Hanson |
| Price:
$33.95 (Hardcover) / $28.95 (Softcover) |
A
full size (8 1/2" x 11") 186 pages,
limited edition hardcover versions available.
Now Steve Hanson returns with his second
work, this one devoted to his other great
shooting interest... today's precision air
rifle. His approach to this new topic is
much like his approach to his earlier book...
logically organized, extensively researched,
and thoroughly tested in literally hundreds
of hours in the game fields, in Field Target
competition, and at a benchrest. The evolution
of today's precision air rifle is traced
from the early (and recent) lever action
B-B guns to the cost-in-four-figures target
and hunting guns now available. The pros
and cons of the airgun calibers are discussed
in depth for both hunting and target applications.
Airguns from foreign manufacturers are given
in-depth review as are the popular airgun-specializing
gunsmiths operating today. |

ACCURACY FACTS |
| By:
Harold Vaughn |
| Price:
$34.95 (Softcover) |
|
Following World War II, where he flew 100 combat
missions in P-47s and P-51s in the Pacific Theatre,
the author joined Sandia National laboratories in
New Mexico where he became recognized as the grandfather
of the Aeroballistics/Flight Mechanics Technology
base for nuclear ordnance…obviously a pretty
brainy guy. During the last few decades he became
fascinated with rifle accuracy as an avocation,
and more specifically the question of just why some
guns shot well and seeming duplicate rifles simply
did not shoot at all well. Today his book is widely
hailed as the obvious successor to Dr. F.W. Mann’s
1909 classic work The Bullet’s Flight. (292
