Since we are going to be loading/reloading/handloading for the foreseeable future and we have a computer, why not buy a subscription to loaddata.com?

You already know how to load. You understand the principles of how the dies work and your press and auxiliary equipment perform so.............all we really need is more data. loaddata.com is a great source for that data. No need to keep up with the latest publication, which by the way seems to keep watering down good data, @ $25/year or every other year for them.

You also get all of the loads that are tested in Handloader Magazine and references to their articles where they were developed, that way, you get the "whole story" behind the loads, accuracy information included.

The only reason I will buy another manual is to pass it on to a newbie to get them started. After that, I am going to introduce them to their computer and loaddata.com.


FWIW

Oh, by the way, Lyman has a Cast Manual too. All of the loads in it are for lead bullets.
