Handgun Hunting: How to Travel the World in Pursuit of Wild Game!

Each year more and more hunters accept the challenge of bagging their quarry with a handgun. This book provides the information needed to hunt everything from jackrabbits to elephants.

Mark Hampton takes readers to North and South America, Africa, Australia, Asia, and Europe to discover what game is available and what kind of firepower is needed to take it. His overview of available guns, effective hunting bullet designs, ammunition, handloading, and other hunting accessories gives hunters the edge they need for success.

Covers small game such as varmints, squirrels, rabbits, impala, puma, and klipspringer, and larger game such as deer, bear, moose, caribou, boar, mountain lion, elk, antelope, wildebeest, and kudu. Also features Africa's most dangerous beasts: leopard, lion, cape buffalo, rhino, and elephant.

Hampton has hunted on each of the six continents and taken more than 100 different species of game. He also owned and operated a game-hunting ranch for nine years, hosting more than 2,500 hunters.
