    I hadn't purchased a reloading book in years. Hornady advertised their 10th Edition at $29.99. I bought two...one for my son. I am a bit disappointed with it. 1005 pages, inch and three quarters thick, get to the nitty-gritty and it's meh.

    Every company on the planet posts their load data online. I can't see the purpose for a manual when I can do the same thing online

    Because loading data dissapears online. Hornady online rarely lists data for cast bullets because they dont manufacture them any more. But they are still in the 7th edition.


    Alliant also has scubbed almost all the reloding data online for Unique powder in handguns. Because they want you to switch out to BE -86.


    To many reasons to list why not having a hard copy is a bad idea.
    www.Steelvalleycasting.com is your new home for coated bullets and custom ammo.

    Well. 25.0 ended up giving me the tightest group at 25 yards.

    At 100 yards on a steel IDPA target I aimed right between the shoulders, five shots.

    I am very satisfied with this

    There's the base. Now, if they don't yaw through the paper at 100 and 200 yards, work with various distances off the lands.

    I only have a 100 yard range but they were not tumbling through the paper at 100.
