Advanced Long Range Shooting: The Next Step in Precision Rifle Shooting

Ryan M. Cleckner

This is the advanced follow-on to the bestselling Long Range Shooting Handbook. This book is a deeper and more technical guide designed for shooters who have mastered the fundamentals and are ready to push their skills beyond the basics. Written in the same clear, everyday language as the first book, this volume takes complex long-range concepts and breaks them down into simple, practical lessons you can apply on the range. Drawing from the author’s years of experience as a special operations sniper, sniper instructor, and professional long-range teaching, this book gives you the next level of knowledge you need to become a truly capable precision shooter. If you’re already comfortable with principles like MOA, MILs, and external ballistics, this book will help you move into the advanced topics that separate casual shooters from true long-range marksmen. You’ll learn how to confidently use ballistic software, make reliable wind and moving target calculations, and even hand-load precision ammunition tuned for your rifle. Advanced long-range shooting isn’t reserved for experts. With the right instruction, it’s a skill you can develop step by step. This book is designed to be a trusted resource and guide that you’ll reference as your abilities grow. Sections This advanced guide is organized into three sections: 1. Ammunition This section covers ammunition variables and components, it walks you through how to craft precision hand-loaded ammunition, and how to develop your own custom load. 2. External Ballistics This section covers the deeper theory behind long-range shooting, including how to build and validate your ballistic data, environmental effects, transonic considerations, and advanced wind-reading. 3. Application This section covers advanced shooting techniques like engaging moving targets and how to measure and track your progress.

Whether you’re a precision rifle competitor, an experienced long-range hunter, a tactical marksman, or a shooter who simply wants to go beyond the basics, this book continues the journey you began with the Long Range Shooting Handbook. Master the advanced concepts. Build repeatable precision. Become the long-range shooter you’re capable of being.
