Interested in learning about the scout rifle? There’s a new book out now that’ll definitely scratch that itch. It’s called “The Scout Rifle Study,” and it’s written by renowned gun/outdoor writer Richard Mann.

“The Scout Rifle Study” offers a comprehensive look at the history of the scout rifle and its place in the new millennium.

“People are finally beginning to realize Cooper was mostly right; the simplest one-rifle solution for the world is a Scout Rifle,” Mann says.
