Did somebody read this book,whats your opinion,i know very few about Terry Wieland ,has somebody have info about him ,was he a professional hunter ,has he extensive experience in DG ,please let me know your opinon about the book.Juan

Jaun,

I've read "Dangerous Game Rifles". Lots of practical advice in it. Enjoyed it.

Surprised that Weiland didn't mention Searcy as a manufacturer of modern doubles, however. He was critical of other manufacturers, so I don't think that he was trying to be polite.

Other than that it is good text. It is now on my shelf of reference materials.

Not sure about his resume. I know that he is a prolific writer and appears in several shooting/hunting rags. I'm sure others can comment on his credentials.

Seemed to be a pretty good source of background information on the why and where of heavy rifle design. I'll probably refer back to it when a question comes up or just when I want an enjoyable read.

Terry Wieland is a Canadian writer. Terry is not a PH, but has hunted on a global basis.

I just received it a couple of days ago. It's good. Probably the most current info (as of 2005) on available new rifles for DG. Worth the $$ IMO.
