In Iraq a sniper named 'Juba' put together a group of snipers who were very effective. Now, years later he is training in southern Syria. Swagger and the Israelis get involved and a raid is launched. Vital information is gathered but Juba has escaped. And has gone to the US for his next assignment in the US. The FBI gets involved. A cartel is involved, a mosque, and much more

Well worth a read if this sort of book appeals to you. Much technical reloading info as well as long range needed info is included throughout the book. And the 338 Lapua and 6.5 Creedmoor are prominent.
