It's a multi-page website with info about rifle accuracy. It would take a while to post it all.

Here's the text of the first page:

"Long Range Rifle Hunting
Within YOUR Reach."
Welcome to rifle-accuracy-reports.

Our main concern is the building up of extreme accuracy in your factory hunting rifle. We also provide information on the expertise of the top custom rifle makers and the extreme accuracy of the rifles they build. We're here to help develop your weapon, scope, bullet, and you; the shooter, into the long range hunter with all the components working together.

Imagine the average hunter that books a five-day Elk or Mule Deer hunt costing thousands of dollars. He spends time in the gym, getting into shape. He drives to the shooting range to sight-in, does alot of practice. Shoots very well out to 400 yards. This is good.

He is now on the long awaited hunt. Long hikes, glassing and spotting animals, hunting hard, and enjoying every minute. Sometimes, (more often than not) you hunt hard until the last day. That trophy Elk or Mule Deer is now standing there. Only one thing stands between you and getting that animal anchored on the ground... The Distance. He's standing out at 700 yards and no timely way to close the distance.

This is when a hunter may realize that "sighting-in three inches high" at 100 yards won't get the job done. And the use of "Hold-Over" is guessing and not an option. Being a responsible hunter, and knowing that his maximum effective range is 400 yards, he decides to let that trophy animal "Walk" out of his life; because it is the right thing to do.

Or, you can obtain the right information and learn how to properly prepare for your hunt. Doing whatever it takes to get your rifle, scope, and bullet working together as an extension of yourself. The best Shooting Range preparation and correct practice at extended distances will give you the mental edge you need to make consistent, repeatable shots. And you will know that you can take that shot, and make the shot of a lifetime.

We, at rifle-accuracy-reports are here to help. Please enjoy our site, and if you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask. Thanks
