A Sniper's Guide to Long-Range Shooting is a collection of insider knowledge and skills from author Glen Roberts's career in police special operations sniping and his long-range shooting training business. It all started at the age of eighteen with learning long-range variables with a custom .243Win using DOS matrix computer technology and handwritten range cards. Over the years, target engagements by first-rate military snipers worldwide have doubled, and the effective range of police special operations snipers has quadrupled.

An easy-to-use guide for novices and experienced professionals alike, A Sniper's Guide to Long-Range Shooting contains a methodical approach to everything you need to know about long-range shooting, including the latest advancements in shooting equipment, optics, laser technology, and trajectory mapping software.

Including a wealth of helpful images, carefully illustrated instructional diagrams, detailed tables, and helpful FAQ, topics include the fundamentals of shooting, shooting positions, shooting styles, wind effects, projectile designs, telescopic sights, projectile flight studies, cartridge and rifle selection, environmental effects, long-range shooting tools, and equipment calibration.

Glen Roberts entered rifle hunting at a young age under the supervision of his father (1929-2021), an East African colonial farmer and hunter. Before Glen joined the police force in 1990, he was already an experienced long-range shooter and hunter from months spent at his older brother's 125,000-acre pastoral property.After eight years of police work, Glen underwent the grueling selection process to enter the Western Australian Police Force's Elite Counter Terrorism Unit, ultimately qualifying as a sniper. During his nineteen years as a sniper, Glen also independently studied exterior ballistics, optics, and trajectory mapping software, conducting numerous field tests. He owned and operated Precision Shooting Australia from 2009 - 2017, where he trained police and civilians in long-range shooting.
