Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Precision Guided Firearm Long-range rifle systems known as precision guided weapons (PGFs) are meant to increase the accuracy of firing at targets at longer ranges via the use of target tracking, heads-up displays, and improved fire control. The introduction of PGF technology to small weapons, which was inspired by missile lock-on and fighter jet technology, reduces various causes of marksman mistake, such as mis-aim, trigger jerk, and shot setup miscalculation. At extreme ranges of 1,100 meters or farther, PGFs have the potential to greatly boost the first shot success probability (FSSP).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History and deployment of smart weapons In the United States, efforts to develop precision guided munitions—PGMs—began during the First World War and resulted in an 'aerial torpedo' by the 1920s. While World War II was dominated by large-scale strategic bombing—essentially throwing out tons of free-falling munitions in the hope they hit something important—both sides in the war worked to develop airborne munitions that could be steered toward a target. However after that war, U.S. national security policy focused on the atomic bomb, hardly a weapon that needed to be directed with accuracy. The cost of emphasis on atomic weapons was revealed in the general unsuitability of American tactics and weapons deployment systems during the Vietnam War. Lessons learned in that conflict, coupled with rapid technological developments in aerodynamics, lasers, and solid-state electronics, brought air power dramatically closer to the "surgical strike" now seen as crucial to modern warfare. New technology created attractive choices and options for American policymakers as well as field commanders, and events in the Arab-Israeli wars, the U.S. raid on Libya, and most dramatically in the first Gulf War created an ever-increasing demand for the precision weapons. The prospect of pinpoint delivery of weapons right to the enemy's door by speeding aircraft seems to presage war in which the messy and politically risky deployment of ground troops is unnecessary. The potential of such weapons, and their strategic limitations, made the Gulf War and Iraqi War living theater for assessing what such weapons can and cannot do and have important implications for planning for future warfare.

Download or read book Long Range Precision Rifle Expanded Edition written by Anthony Cirincione II and published by Paladin Press. This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his original version of Long-Range Precision Rifle, U.S. Army sniper and avid precision rifle and long-range rifle shooter, competitor, and enthusiast Anthony Cirincione II put extreme accuracy with a precision rifle within the reach of any shooter. His instruction was based on 26 months of combat deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan and his training of squad-designated marksmen for his battalion. His precision-shooting book proved to be an instant best-seller. In this expanded edition, Cirincione adds five new sections: "External Ballistic Truing." Although he briefly detailed the process of external ballistic truing in the first edition, given the level of importance to midrange and long-range target engagement, he believes that the process of truing deserves a detailed description. "Determining Fast and Correct Windage Adjustments or Holds."Cirincione covered the creation of a custom windage card for specific guns and pet loads in the first edition, but this added windage section shares his current process. The old way works fine, but his new method is faster and more precise, and doesn't require you to look at a card. As always, the process can be applied to any caliber you are using. "Midrange and Long-Range Target Engagement: Magneto Speed V3 Ballistic Chronograph vs. External Ballistic Truing." This section features a report Cirincione sent to the U.S. Army Sniper School outlining the testing of a barrel-mounted chronograph. The test pitted the device against his current method of external ballistic truing, given target engagements from 100 to 1,000 yards. It gives you a couple of different options to get on target at extended range. "How to Build a Switch-Barrel Rifle, and the Process of Swapping Barrels." As Cirincione has moved away from factory bolt-action rifles and into custom-built guns, he thought readers would appreciate information on how to build one. Not only that, but he also includes specific information on how to remove and add barrels of different calibers to that same stock and action. "Suppressed Subsonic Shooting." This section is about precision shot placement with subsonic ammo out to 400 yards. Long-Range Precision Rifle: Expanded Edition lays out the most up-to-date methods for getting the most out of whatever rifle you are using. After discussing rifle, ammunition and optic selection, Cirincione reveals his tried-and-true methods of gathering and recording data. He takes you step-by-step through the process of discovering how to make your rifle perform at its peak with every shot. You will also learn how to adjust for environmental factors and obstructions that lie between you and your target, and discover why handloading and building your own precision cartridges is an extra step well worth taking. "Anthony Cirincione was an amazing teacher while helping me get ready for sniper school. His knowledge and meticulous rifle setup techniques were instrumental to my success. udents and further help the sniper community."

His knowledge and meticulous rifle setup techniques were instrumental to my success.

It lays out a system that anyone can follow to successfully develop a precision rifle setup for hunting, target, or competition shooting.

Be the guy who smoothly pulls the trigger at any distance with knowledge of where your bullet is going and confidence in a first-round hit."–Brandon Connell, civilian shooter, Memphis, TN This detailed guide puts extreme accuracy at long range with a precision rifle within the reach of any shooter. But what exactly is a precision rifle? Author Anthony Cirincione II defines it as a rifle that consistently prints 1.047 inches or smaller at 100 yards. If that's the kind of shooting that you think is beyond your capability, think again. A U.S. Army sniper and avid precision rifle and long-range rifle shooter, competitor, and enthusiast, Cirincione has 26 months' worth of combat deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, and has trained multiple groups of squad-designated marksmen for his battalion. In this book, he lays out an easily understood method for getting the most out of whatever rifle you are using. After discussing rifle, ammunition, and optic selection, he reveals his tried-and-true methods of gathering and recording data. He takes you step-by-step through the process of discovering how to make your rifle perform at its peak with every shot. In this book you will also learn how to adjust for environmental factors and obstructions that lie between you and your target, and discover why hand loading and building your own precision cartridges is an extra step well worth taking. Whether you are a civilian or in the military or law enforcement, all shooting sports using long guns become more rewarding and enjoyable when the shooter gains a useful understanding of the external ballistics of his rifle.
