Thousands of hours of expert ballistics performance research, compiled freely offered to the firearms community What is Rifle Bedding? Rifle bedding is fundamental to rifle accuracy. The term bedding refers to the fit and stability of a barreled action within the rifle stock. If the fit and stability of the metal work in relationship to the stock is poor, the rifle will be in-accurate. Bedding a rifle with epoxy resin is the optimum method of obtaining a correct fit, long term stock stability and optimum rifle accuracy.In order for a rifle to shoot accurately, the number one rule is that everything needs to be the same with each shot. There are several variables to rifle accuracy and each variable must be addressed. The shooter needs to be in the same position for each shot, each cartridge must be the same as the one before it, and the scope must hold the same zero while the rifle needs to produce the same results each and every time.With every shot, the barreled rifle action moves and vibrates within the rifle stock. The best way to picture the barrel is by using the analogy of a baseball pitcher. As the pitcher throws his ball, the slightest difference in his point of release will change the point of impact at the batter. The rifle barrel is just the same and whips with each shot. If the barrel is unable to whip the same way each time, the bullet will strike to a different point of impact.The rifle... read more Carsten, I shot plenty of goats with a .222 years ago. I'm 49 now so I'm young enough to be a .223 convert.My wife owns a .243 and has taken pigs. It would be fine on goats, particularly with shot placement. I don't really shoot at 400 but I will be practicing soon with .308 just to learn the skills.I have a .22-250 but it may be a bit light for goats at longer ranges. The .243 would do well and is Popular in Australia making ammo available, actually ADI/outback ammo offer the bul... Rob - I believe there already is a North American distributor. Paul Leverman is a member and I recall a post by him when COVID was really heating up. I found the old post and in it he mentioned that he was distributing under the name Nechako Distributors. I had a few email exchanges with him last year about Nathan's products. I think (?) he is in Canada. As a follow up to my last post to this thread - I checked and West does produce un-thickened GFlex but I'd go with Nathan's goop ...What is the best cartridge projectile for long range hunting?The Practical Guide to Long Range Hunting Cartridges guides you through the process of choosing a cartridge and a projectile which suits you and your goals - step by step. This book, like many of Nathan s books and writings, takes the approach that there is no need for you to be told which is the best cartridge for you - you can answer that question for yourself once you know how. Hi Nathan, the Practical Guide to Hunting Cartridges is a fantastic read and more than that, it is a reference manual! This is a book that I ll be going back to for information time and time again, like old reloading manuals! Brilliant Nathan, thank you!!A.F, Canada Successful long range hunting requires an accurate rifle. Pretty obvious really.The Practical Guide to Long Range Hunting Rifles draws on the vast experience of Nathan Foster and provides a completely fresh approach to the subject of the long range hunting rifle. It educates the reader about basic rifle engineering and the physics involved in accurate shooting - covering 31 different topics right through to the final result - the ultimate long range hunting tool. I am writing to say that have I received and read your book, cover to cover. What an eye opener. I wish I had read it prior to purchasing my current rifle. Still I will now work towards a stable, well constructed .308 platform based on your sage observations.Shawn Sturland, U.S Learn how to make accurate hand loaded ammunition!The Practical Guide to Reloading takes you right through the hand loading process, explaining the different types of equipment and the hand loading process from top to bottom. The tool list covers basic items for those on a limited budget right through to advanced equipment. It then details a step by step process of making ammunition that is specifically tailored to your rifle allowing you to extract every last bit of accuracy from your rifle. You know what the difference is Nathan, you speak to folk in a manner that they understand. You can t get this kind of information elsewhere. I think this will always be the difference. You speak to your readers in layman s terms.S NewtonLearn how to turn your rifle into a tack driver and keep it that way!This book looks at how to fine tune a rifle into a highly accurate tool. If your current rifle isn t performing to an adequate standard then you will have clear steps to either rectify problems or ascertain whether parts (eg barrel) replacement is required. The maintenance section of this book has crucial information for long term care of the rifle, helping to maximize barrel life while preventing corrosion. Sub sections of this book also deal with self loading rifle and lever action rifle care. Nathan, just wanted to say that although I have been an armourer in the British Army for 20 years, your books have opened my eyes to long range hunting and rifle accuracy outside of military teaching. It has become blatantly apparent that military thinking is years behind in both technical and user training. I am actively encouraging armourers and users to read your books and check out your website.
