The Ultimate Optics Guide to Rifle Shooting by Vortex Optics
As I mentioned in previous posts I am not typically a “Brand” guy but as a rare exception, I’m becoming a fan of the Vortex Optics brand. This morning over coffee I was scanning the Vortex Optic site for 2016 products when I happened across the All About Optics Brochure. I found it to be nicely done and informative in a down to earth manner. Being a curious guy I decided to research who wrote it. It appears the author is CPL. Reginald J.G. Wales a technical field advisor for Vortex Optics.
Upon further research, it turns out CPL. Reginald J.G. Wales is also the author of a book from Vortex optics called “The Ultimate Optics Guide to Rifle Shooting” from Vortex Optics”. The Ultimate Optics Guide to Rifle Shooting was released in December 2015 and has no reviews at the usual places. The book can be previewed on Google Books and purchased from Google and Amazon in Hardback, Paper, and Kindle versions. I was hoping the kindle version would be less expensive but it’s the same as the paperback. I ordered the paperback. Look for feedback and a review in the near future.

Whether you are a competition shooter, a hunter, or a law enforcement or military professional, this book is an invaluable addition to your marksmanship toolbox. The author, Cpl. Reginald J. G.
