Description

In this sought-after masterpiece, Bob Brister, "one of the most respected firearms authorities" in the world (The New York Times), addresses every problem the shotgunner is likely to face, and offers solutions, based on years of tests and study of data, to ensure that shooters can make every shot count. He details selection of guns, loads, chokes, and more for every situation. Brister is bold enough to present his readers with the science of shotgunning. No other book can make this claim. But Brister never forgets the art that makes shooting a sport. Shotgunning is a veritable encyclopedia of the shotgun for the modern shooter and outdoorsman.
