He’d show videos of his most famous ward, Manu Bhaker, and then painstakingly explain the almost invisible movements that produce the perfect shot. To most, it looked like nothing at all.

For all his reputation as a straight-talker and fighter, Rana was fundamentally a shooting obsessive. A nerd who dedicated his life – first as an athlete, then as a coach – chasing perfection in a sport where success is measured in millimetres and movement is the enemy.
