Summary

Custom Rifleswas a tour de force in the world of customized rifles when it was origi­nally published in the 1950s, and it is still relevant today. The custom rifle is much more than just another shooting implement. Certainly, accuracy may be greatly improved over a particular rifle’s off-the-shelf cousins, but the main reason that people customize rifles is to take advantage of the skills of the individual gunsmith and stockmaker to produce something that fits the individual needs of the owner. In this book, noted author and rifleman Jeff Cooper explains the different designs of action, custom barrels, the best types of wood for making stocks and of course the popular calibers of ammunition in use at the time, many of which are still with us today. This is more than just a book for the would-be customizer. It offers excellent information on what improves or affects the performance of a fine rifle.
