{2.25⭐️} I read this to educate myself for work this summer, and it was very educational. However, I do not think it was edited.

You have to love guns and ballistics. Its not a page turner...

Pretty good book on the subject of ballistics. Due to the lack of book on the subject, it makes this a must read. The 'simple' math helps for shorter distances (less than 400 yds) but other than that it really hinders the reader. To really understand ballistics you need to understand the math...and building simple yet unrealistic models sometimes doesn't help. Still the author does a good job with the subject matter.
