Varmint Al


When you combine an engineer performing engineering structural analysis at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and and a varmint hunter/gun nut in one person, and he puts up a web site, you get something like Varmint Al's.

Al is a man of many interests: a ham radio operator, shooter, hunter, machinist, hiker and dog owner, and the "eclectic" tag in his site title is accurate.

I guess I'd sum it up as readable, but sometimes very technical. For example, below is an illustration of the forces and motions in a gun as it is fired from one of his articles.

If you are interested in ballistics, gunsmithing, bench rest shooting, accuracy, varmint hunting, or all of the above, you will enjoy a visit to his site.
