SynopsisSimpson tells you what rifles, cartridges, bullets, loads, and scopes are best for various applications, and he explains why in plain English., Layne Simpson, who has been field editor for Shooting Times magazine for twenty years, draws from his hunting experience on five continents to tell you what rifles, cartridges, bullets, loads, and scopes are best for various applications, and he explains why in plain English. Developer of the popular 7mm STW cartridge, Simpson has taken big game with rifle cartridges ranging in power from the .220 Swift to the .460 Weatherby Magnum, and he pulls no punches when describing their effectiveness in the field. Some writers have a tendency to get hung up on one rifle or one cartridge, and, although they know about as much as there is to know about that particular rifle and cartridge, they have very little firsthand experience with the performance of other rifles and cartridges. This is not the case with Simpson. Through the years Simpson has made it a point to hunt with as many different cartridges as possible, making it easier for him to list the cartridges with which he has not taken big game than to list those he has used! His vast knowledge is chronicled in this book. If you are interested in the equipment needed to hunt white-tailed deer, pronghorn antelope, elk, mule deer, caribou, black bear, moose, Alaska brown bear, Cape buffalo, African lion, or any other big-game animal, Rifles and Cartridges for Large Game is for you. You will find this a reference book of monumental proportions, and one that you will want to refer to time and again. Book jacket.
