Both air rifle and pistol. My goal is to hunt but most of my shooting will be paper for fun and skill building. I may check out some local competitions as well for the challange of it. Thanks Little Rickie Ooops sorry bad click wrong place Can someone move me?

Just skip the parts on the Avanti 853 and go right to the marksmanship section: http://www.cadets.forces.gc.ca/est/commun/tir/doc/manuelref/Part1_e.pdf This next one is more advanced (Olympic level shooting). It was discontinued by the NRA, so either look for it online or go to your public library and ask them to find it via interlibrary loan: Competitive Shooting by A. A.

The annex at the end lists lots of books.

My practice shots are so so rested and not so good free standing. The gun needs breaking in and so do I but that's the challange and that's the fun. My contest scores are going to suck. I'm not even sure if I can hit all the small circles standing let alone get a good score.
