    As a young guy I would buy 3rd handle rifles and shot guns w/cheap ammo and hope for the best. At 66 I’ve been able get a few nice rifles (Cooper) and would like to better understand the physics and craftsmanship involved in accuracy - this course is filling a lot of knowledge voids! I rated this as 5 stars - learning over cost ratio is very high.

    I have been studying precision handloading for over six-years. Starting from no background on the subject, I studied and took notes from every article in book and monthly magazine I found. I have a really well-thought out library now - - but, working through this on-line course in a month of evenings equaled-and-surpassed my six-years of notes and charts. Actually, this on-line handloading course surprised me with a couple of pages of new material to my personal notes. Well done!
