Got my copy today and the wifey had to wait for me to re-heat supper for her. Over 2 hours but she still smiled.

Great book, imfirmative and helpful. Go to the website and order a copy today, it will only take 8 days to get it even through customs.

print off a copy of the webpage and tell wholesale sports or whatever big gun store that carries books to order a couple of dozen copies.

then you will get more folks out to the range and the stupid vendor will sell more ammo and guns, what a concept.

Damn fine book. and no you cannot borrow mine

glad the guy wrote it and glad someone published it. More books on the website too.

must go the book beckones. jeff
 
I believe Jeff is talking about Steve Boelter's rimfire book. I have heard real good comments about this book, and I know that Steve is real knowledgable when it comes to this type of stuff.

I foget the exact title.

Wow, second post pushing the new book. On commission, are we?:D
I intend to order the book although I wouldn't mind getting one of the signed copies from the author.

However, a book on the performance of 137 types of .22 ammo is hardly a novice book or something that is going to attract new shooters. More for the dedicated rimfire shooter.
From the web site: "Additional segments discuss cleaning the rimfire barrel, maintaining the rifle, and the influences of lot variation, rim thickness, and loaded round weight."

Not really sure what value the book will have - ammo accuracy in .22's is mostly dependent on the gun to ammo match and also lot numbers. Someone else's results with different lot numbers and different guns are not that much help. And of course, there is going to be a lot of ammo that we can't get or is not common up here in Canada.
I don't need a book to tell me that Eley or Lapua is better than Blazer or Xperts. How accurate needs to be determined on my gun.
Now, it would be interesting to see how accuracy increases as you go up the Eley and Lapua food chain. Is practice good enough or do you get better bang for your buck moving up to trainer or rifle. What about Tenex or the new bullet design or the two different diameters of the Lapua.
