Gday mate
I think Jim passed away in 1992
I also think his publication started around 1954
I had some interesting times with him
Ahead of his time If thats who you are talking about

Hi Sean,
What are you looking for in particular? The Competitive Rifle Shooting book or the cleaning products?
Also where are you located?
The book was last updated as the revised seventh edition in 1982
and has been reprinted several times after Jim Sweet passing away in September 1992.
There is also a reprint of the fourth edition 1956 .303 available.
First edition was in 1948.

My life prior to 1992 was and continues to be an interesting one because of him.

yeah sorry guys
i was asking about the sweets grouping score book.
this new one we got from the qra doesnt give any indication of the moa lines on the targets.
the sweets book [back cover] says its 1/4 min. but doesnt have anything for scope shooters.
this one from qra has scope but doesnt give a moa for the lines.
so i was just trying to clarification.
