RIM
THICKNESS
Voodoo or magic? Depends. Find out in this book
segment. As always, testing was performed using
detailed methods and controlled conditions. Learn
about the effects and the tools of this ammo
preparation procedure. ALSO discussed are the
effects and influences of weighing loaded rounds as
a means of segregation.
LOT
VARIATION
This is a subject on the minds of serious
shooters everywhere. We all have heard that
ammunition performance varies from run to run.
Steve meticulously tested the effects of varying
lots of the same ammunition and goes into detail
about how to follow this process
yourself.
RIMFIRE AMMUNITION
DESIGN
This chapter documents the origins and evolution of
the rimfire cartridge, including a look at
state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques employed
by Eley.
CHAMBERS AND
CHAMBER REAMERS
My favorite book segment! This material not only
explains the differences in all the different
rimfire chambers available, but documents their
influences on a variety of ammunition types, from
store brands to the finest target ammo available.
It's amazing information that no serious rimfire
shooter should do without. Four different chambers
are tested.
BARREL TUNERS
Getting the last inth of accuracy from a
competition rimfire rifle might mean the use of a
barrel tuner. Steve cuts through the myths and
misconceptions and clearly reveals the science
behind these devices. Of course, using a tuner is
explained in detail, and sample targets are
included in the discussion.
CLEANING
In Steven Boelter's mind, this book was not
complete unless it included a lengthy segment on
this "touchy" topic. I agree. The best ammunition
in the world won't shoot like it should unless you
know how to keep your rifle working. This chapter
talks about tools, techniques, and the
all-important topic of "seasoning" a rimfire barrel
so you get maximum accuracy at the next match or
shoot.
