Reeder Custom Guns - I'm evolving into an old curmudgeon, but

I still have a few tricks left. I go to the store and I do not recognize the names on the new powders. I can look it up online but what is the BEST single loading manual that has some of these new powders listed over the widest range of cartridges. I often compare volume and design of other tested cartridges working up wildcat loads.

What do you think is the best published current reloading manual?

I like LOADBOOKS one book per caliber with data from all the reloading manuals.

I use Lyman's CAST BULLET MANUAL also.

I must have near 100 die sets? I have 20+ GNR calibers alone. I've never counted them. One minute I'm loading .22 K Hornet,.32 ACP, then .500 Nitro or even .50 BMG! I absolutely love it. Next to shooting them it's about as fun to me. Except shotgun shells, I am not real fond of shotshells... Totally different discipline.

I think it’s #51 or #52, but it appears to have a wide array of powders. That saves me from trying to track down just a particular powder for a particular load combination.

I generally prefer to go to powder recommendation first.

It's been awhile since I bought one

I've collected die sets and load different cal.

Lyman is the most recent one I picked up
