Lyman 50th Edition Reloading Handbook – New
£25.00
The current edition of this classic reloading manual is my first recommendation for anyone looking for a manual.
Not that I’d recommend you only use one reloading data source as cross checking is good reloading practice, but if you could only have one then this would be it.
Lyman make reloading and casting equipment therefore they don’t have a dog in the race when it comes to data so it encompasses a wide range of powders and bullets. As well as loads for jacketed bullets it also has the best selection of cast boolit loads in any manual.
Lyman’s copy says:
“For more than a century, the Ideal and then Lyman handbooks have been the reloaders’ core resource for proven reloading data. Lyman handbooks have always used the widest selection of cartridges, bullets and powder from all the major manufacturers. This 50th Edition continues our tradition of being the only data source using multiple brands throughout our data.

I won’t argue with that.
