Book Club Edition. Here is an up-to-date reference that provides more authoritative information, and more specific individual loads, than any other handloading book in print. Based on the author's more than thirty years in the field, this important book explores the subject in depth, from its historical development through to the most sophisticated modern wildcats. There's authoritative information on case forming, and manufacture of all the components - case, primer, powder, bullet, shot, wads, etc. Modern Handloading has been prepared with the full cooperation of all important domestic manufacturers, and includes data on development of specific performance levels by the factories. Even professional reloaders, such as those employed by law-enforcement agencies and those custom reloaders who make up and resell ammunition in quantity, will find this book a goldmine of technical know-how. An important section explains in detail the workings of reloading tools, and a lengthy appendix includes a glossary, bibliography, directory of dealers, and tables of energy, loads, capacities, densities, measures, etc. Whether the handloader is a serious beginner who wants to learn or is an advanced expert with many years of experience, this is the book that will prove to be his most valuable reference.
