What’s the story on the Speer Reloading Manual #14?... UPDATE

SPEER MANUALS

For some reason, a bit back, $71.00 seemed to be the going price. I refused to pay that and found one at a gun show-- saw one for $70.00, went around the end of the tables and founr a NEW one for $33.00 -- so it goes. :)
 
ZOMBIE!
Revived yesterday after being dead for over 5-1/2 years!
Funny how the board recycles these old threads to the front page and they get brought back to life! :D

Yep, a thread back from the dead. I really wish threads would be automatically locked after a predetermined period of inactivity.
 
Reloading Manuals are Neat

Sometimes these Old Posts are Neat
and bring out Fresh information.

Two Manuals I found and bought at
the 2018 Cheyenne Pistol & Rifle Club
"Guns Only" Show.

Why?
When joining a new forum, or maybe just curious, I often try to read ALL the posts I am interested in, no matter when written.
This helps preclude a myriad of repeat posts over the years as well.
Provides an unexpected, out of order, read for the rest of us.
I don't mind at all.

Look closely enough and you can see the "Speer" written on this bullet:

I don't shoot Speer bullets. Do I need a Speer manual? But why do I have one?

If you do reload but use different bullets I would suggest the Lee reloading manual since it lists loads for many popular manufacturers bullets. I have the Speer #14 manual however I don't use it much because almost everywhere I shop locally the stores only have Hornady bullets, so I use Hornady's 9th edition for that. But the Lee manual came in handy when I came across 1k rounds of 170gr 38 cal SWC hardcasts. :D


By the way guys, Academy, Bass pro shop ect sell Speer #14 for $30 bux.
