Hello everyone, I would appreciate any help or advice on entering in the field of air and small bore rifle competition. Specifically I would like to find a coach/advisor. Also advice on any organizations, publications, websites, books, DVDs or manuals that I should join or purchase. What equipment would you reccomend that I purchase and the best sources for that equipment. I'm an Adult from Connecticut
Any advice would help - THANKS!

If you're anywhere near Bridgeport, you may want to give the Bridgeport Rifle Club a call. Rick Capozzi is the man you'll probably want to talk to. They focus mostly on juniors, but Rick and some of the others are great coaches and will tell you everything you need to know to get involved in the sport. CT is a great place to start, as there are plenty of matches both indoor and outdoor throughout the year.
