ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Anthony Cirincione is a recognized subject matter expert in

the setup and use of the Precision Rifle. He is an avid "Long

Range Shooting" competitor and has years of military sniper

training and experience, including over 2 years of combat deployment

time in both Iraq and Afghanistan serving as a US

ARMY Sniper and sniper section leader. In addition, he has a

private training company that he instructs at when he is stateside.

IN THE AUTHORS WORDS

"While serving as the Sniper Section Leader of Tiger

Force/1-327 INF/1 BCT/101 ASSLT, I put together an outline of

concepts on which to train selectees who were slotted for

Sniper School. Another training outline I put together contained

"critical knowledge items" that needed to be understood

and implemented to allow the shooter to effectively operate

at a high level with his team. Upon leaving Tiger Force, I

fleshed out both outlines extensively and saw that so much of

this information could be extremely useful to the civilian

shooter. I remembered the struggle I had gone through when I

was looking for information and coming up empty-handed

many times. That was the genesis of the Long-Range Precision

Rifle."

THE 3RD REVISED EDITION

As time goes by new information, training, techniques, equipment,

skills, and much more are constantly becoming available

to the shooter. In order to provide the most up to date information

available, the author has gone through the book and

updated and replaced information where he saw fit to do so.

Any area where the information has remained the same was

left un-changed by the author because the information is still

as valuable today as it was the day it was printed in the first

edition and time has offered no improvement upon it.
