Quite a few people have e-mailed or called Eileen asking about the progress of THE BIG BOOK OF GUN GACK: A Hunter's Guide to Handloading Smokeless Rifle Cartridges. The printer notified us that we will have copies later this month.
A place for pre-orders will be up on riflesandrecipes.com as soon as we know the printing/shipping costs to us, but we do know it will be around $30 shipped. It's a big book, about the size of a GUN DIGEST.
It sounds like it will be softcover?
yooper
Silly question,is it a combination of favorite loads and how to info?
Sounds like a interesting book.
I will be through Townsend Thursday, shall I stop buy with a Coke and get a copy?
If he's not paying attention, grab one for me as well.
Dave
I will trade some gunpowder for a couple copies...
What kind do you need?
I was going to visit some friends this week.
Travis
Idjit,
I was saying I will trade gun powder I have of yours for books...
yooper35,
Yep, softcover and close to 450 pages.
elkhunter,
There's a section in the front with chapters on various aspects of handloading, such as sizing cases straight, plus chapters on the details of components.
Then there are chapters on loading different rounds, most on just one cartridge but some including several, such as the one on the three factory .17-caliber centerfires. There's some history on each cartridge, often involving how it's handloaded. The data often contains results from several rifles, not just a pressure barrel. All together right around 60 cartridges are included from the .17 Hornady Hornet to the .416 Rigby.
In the rear there's a list of manufacturers of various products, a couple of appendices including fairly easy formulas for figuring potential velocity and recoil, and an index.
Can I get just the section on the 270 Win?
Idjit,

I think you are slipping in the gouging department...

Thanks Mule Deer. Sounds like I'm gonna have to talk to the wife and get a copy..... Signed.....
John:
Definitely put me on the list for a copy.
I bought your and Eileen's last 4 other books which were big winners.
It's for my Grandson.
Thanks for being A great fellow American.\
Bill
Can I get just the section on the 270 Win?
the rumor I heard around here is that Ingwe put the kybosh on that chapter so John would have more room for the 7x57 chapter.
Geno
I'm interested in the chapter on the 35 Whelen Ackley.
Seriously, I'm interested in this book. I don't have any magazine subscriptions anymore, and I enjoy reading John's writing.
John,
I'll be ordering one anyway as there is sure to be chapters on 9.3's, 6.5x55, and .303 (I hope).
Do I hold out hope for a chapter on the ".25 super hornet" (AKA .256 Win Mag)?
Geno
Take it you'll let us know when pre-orders will be accepted? Wifey gave me permission to get the book.
will have to stop by and get a copy on one of my next trips that direction
Thanks, I've been thinking I need a reloading book to ponder this winter!
I'm looking forward to the chapter on not measuring stuff that doesn't have to be....
Looking forward to getting this one, Mule Deer. I haven't bought any new reading material lately.
I hope it includes data with all the new powders for the famous B-29.
Seriously, I always enjoy John's articles. I look forward to a copy of said manual.
Sounds like a good book to have on the reloading bench.
Just in time for Christmas! Please Santa...
You guys are makin' me jealous. I never learned to read...
I hope there's pitchers in it, John.
I know it will be a big hit.
I want to buy one too, but I need to know the postage to Canada. I'm buyin' the old lady a Berlitz readin' course on CD.

Tibbe,If you are if you're so unhappy here why don't you just go on your way? Permanently. Please.

Sorry Mule Deer,but just had to post this reply to wee wet willie.
I just had lunch and am now revisiting it again thanks to your lovely mental image.
You guys realize he masturbates to your responses, right?
Travis
Now back to the regularly scheduled programming...I'd be very interested in a copy as well.
Keep us posted, MD.
In another conversation you mentioned "high math" and I asked how high. You said as high as I wanted to go. In response I asked a question which, in the context of that conversation, a person possessed of moderately advanced mathematical knowledge/training could easily answer immediately and in a casual fashion.
Your answer was not quickly forthcoming, was not correct, and in fact another poster noted your answer was pretty much what the first Google search result would reveal.
Instead of saying "I don't know" you took the bait and scrambled to Google. That put a ding on your credibility rating.
To bloviate is your modus operandi and you've been called on it numerous times. Your personal level of butthurt is running high. Yet you can't tear yourself away from all the mean old rubes around here.
Damn, nothing on the .300 Rook?
bummer
Oh well, I'll probably buy it, anyway
So, from this:
John:
Definitely put me on the list for a copy.
I bought your and Eileen's last 4 other books which were big winners.
It's for my Grandson.
Thanks for being A great fellow American.\

I already knew all of this 30 years ago. Same old churning of data to bamboozle the rubes and dupes.
What I can't understand is why these gullible kiss up's are so willing to fork over money for data that has been around for decades.
William, William, William,
as nice a person as you probably are, you should stop soon.
China is not that far away now, you are getting pretty deep.
I do not consider myself a rube or a dupe.
For you to insult Mr Barsness is nearly the ultimate in....
s--theadedeness.
Do you read anything other than what you can find on the internet, in fora similar to this one? Do you read gun and reloading magazines? Do you somehow
not realize that our fellow campfire attendee is considered by many in the industry, and by little dupes and rubes like his thousands of knowledgeable readers, to be an excellent example of a scribe recording for the present, and transmitting to future, generations the art and science of things ballistic?
(OK all you gunwriter types, kick my a-- for such a run on sentence. I couldn't stop, the words and ideas were on a roll
)
In my previous responses to your posts, I have attempted to be polite, thinking perhaps you are old and of diminished mental capacity while still trying to remain relavent to the shooting community. Guess what, I'm still trying to remain polite.
I'll politely inform you that your posts are "ridiculous". I'll save you the trouble of looking that one up:
adj.
Deserving or inspiring ridicule; absurd, preposterous, or silly. See Synonyms at foolish
On another topic you seemed to think I was one of the "good guys".
You can feel free to change your mind now!
Immediately
DO NOT CALL ME GOOD GUY
STOP DO NOT POST AND CALL ME GOOD GUY
Insult me.. fine
Insult my well repsected campfire friend, sorry dude, you're on the s--t list.
Geno
PS mathman I think I know that guy who "googled" Mr. Tibbe's "googling". You were referring to this perhaps:

Thanks for the notice JB. I look forward to the read.
Damn, nothing on the .300 Rook?
bummer
Oh well, I'll probably buy it, anyway
Light on .22 Savage Hi-Power too but he makes it up for the Super-.30 so I'm in!
nyrifleman,
No, we're not accepting pre-orders quite yet, but will be soon. Will post it here then, but in the meantime will keep a list from this thread of those who said they wanted to order one.
Thanks John. Kindly place me in the queue.
Put me down for one as well, please.
Thanks John, looks like an interesting read and nice reference for the bench. Put me on the list also, please.
I will be ordering when it is available as well. Even if the .260 Rem and the B-29 were left out
.
(from the back of the room) ME TOO, ME TOO
John,
I'm interested in a copy as well.
Put me down for two please.
John, put goodshot ( Mike)down as well. I think I have just about all of em.
John,
I changed my mind, I'll need you to put me down for two please. My new to reloading brother will get one for Christmas.
Thanks,

...will keep a list from this thread of those who said they wanted to order one.
Making a list and checking it twice.
I'll take a copy as well, JB. Thanks - it's about time that you wrote this book!
Well, dang. I can't find room to put half the books I already have, much less find room for another.
Put med down for one.
Add my name to the list. I can always use more reading matter on reloading. Looking forward to receiving my copy.
Thanks John.

Hi Amigo:
As usual your posts are down to earth common sense.
Also as usual my comments perceived EXLUDE the vast majority of participants and apply ONLY to a tiny handful. Sorry but you and most others didn't make the grade on the squirrel list.
I actually agree with you summation of John's attributes. I'll be buying my 5th fifth book from them. But not for me, for my Grandson.
Incidentally it looks like I will have to have a little talk with John about "largess" since I single handedly increased his book sales 400% in less than 24 hours !!!
Haven't youse Guys "figgered" out that I am just "messin" around most of the time ?
Please add me to the list for one book.
Mulie,
I want one! However, I need the addendum on the .250 Savage. I might be the only one that shoots it, but you covered my other favorites - 6.5 x 55, 9.3 x 62, and .450/.400. That list makes me conclude you have exquisite taste in cartridges.
Please put me down for 2! Looking forward to it.
Please count me in for one book.
ringworm,
Unfortunately it's not going to be available as an e-book. We actually don't get many requests for any of our publications as e-books, probably because hunters and shooters tend to be a little older than average Americans, and also more traditional.
But the big reason is data is a major leaguge PITA to convert to e-book format. Simple text works fine, but when lots of numbers are involved, especially in a particular layout, they tends to get severely scrambled. Since most of our books contain some data (including Eileen's cookbooks) we're bypassing the entire headache!
hatari,
Oh, the .250 Savage gets plenty of attention, in a long chapter called "The Accurate .25's" that includes the .250 and the two .257's, Roberts and Weatherby. The .25-20 and .25-06 got their own chapters because the .25-20's so different from the "modern" .25's, and the .25-06 because it's by far the most popular .25.
My man! Looking forward to it.
Looks like a good one!
Travis
This means I want to buy one if shrapnel can't steal one.
Travis
It is no surprise, perhaps, that WET shares his name with a recent president of some disdain, while our respected gunwriter-friend has a lot in common in stalwart repute with Jack O'C. And, of course, "Jack" is a name sometimes substituted for the perfectly good name John.
You had me at : 14) The “Triple Deuce” (.222 Remington)
Incoming order.

As a new reloader I think this may be a must read for me since all of my callibers are in it.
Please put me down for a copy.
Tom
Haven't youse Guys "figgered" out that I am just "messin" around most of the time ?
No, we have you figured out. You're just a prick.
I would like to buy 2 of them, one for me and the other for a gift. thanks
This is one book I'm looking forward to.
... since all of my calipers are in it...
Tom
Inside or outside?
I'm in for 4. One for me and the rest are for hunting buddies who will get them as Christmas gifts.
Giving the book as a gift will provide the recipients with one of the best Christmas gifts of their life!

Count me in for a copy, John.
I would also like to purchase a copy.
Would like to purchase at least 2.

Calibers.
John, I would like to go on the list for two as well.
Better put me down for one.

JB, I'll take one looks like some good reading. Has to be a good read if there is a chapter on the 35 Remington!
JB better get the 2nd printing ordered
I'm hoping Turp takes notice and begins work on Volume 3.....
I'll buy one, John. Be sure and post on the "other" forum just above this one when they are ready.
Lots of us higher class folks don't come down here much.
Too many meanies hang out here and they hurt our feelers.
John,
Add me to the list in for one!

You can count me in as well.
Thanks

I'm confused. Has this thread turned into a pre-order request list?
Like so many threads around here, it took on a life all its own.
I'm just happy to see the book is imminent for release, and, as soon as JB indicates it's open for bidness, I'll be placing my order.
In that case john, put me down for one. --- Mel
I'll take a copy. Post a link to purchase when it is ready.
Yes, of course I am absolutely the problem.
Bill.
Damn skippy.
Thanks, everybody, will let you know as soon as we get a couple more details!
JB-
what will the method be? Will you start a new post titled "server beefed up" or similar?
Please put me on the list for a copy.
Thanks,
Richard
If its a list, then put me down for one also.
Thanks, Jeff

Me too.
I've been looking for 222 Magnum data collected AD.... (grins)
Seriously, mark me down for one.
Missed my free copy at the PD Invitational, so I'll pay.
If I can't get a "1st printing" copy, put me down for a 2nd printing copy.
I'd like one also. Thanks.
John,does the $32.50 include shipping and handling?
Yes. All the prices on our website include both--and all books are autographed. If you want some special inscription, say for a friend you want to tweak, we include that too.
I do want something "different" for the autograph.
We will call tomorrow.
Yes. All the prices on our website include both--and all books are autographed. If you want some special inscription, say for a friend you want to tweak, we include that too.
Okay, SOLD, add me to the list for one copy.
Please include a snappy inscription - something like:
"For MtnBoomer, He needs all the help he can get, and he needs it again and again...."
Folks,you can go to his website (
http://www.riflesandrecipes.com) and pre-order the book.
Thanks elkhtrnm, ordered.
Yep, the website just started listing it yesterday.
Those who don't like using a credit card on the Internet can order by mail: Deep Creek Press, PO Box 579, Townsend, MT 59644-0579. As noted earlier the price of $32.50 includes shipped (media mail) and handling, and all copies are autographed. If you want something special with the autograph, just include a note in the envelope.
The books will be here sometime during the last week of October, and will be mailed then.

PS, I'm keeping an eye out on the rest of the squirrels in case dissention in the ranks leads to a revolt. I'll "see" you on the other forum for an update.
I'm disappointed that there's no chapter on the 29 BS but I'll take one too.
Thanks. I ordered a copy enroute to this years elk hunt!
Thanks John,
Ordered this evening.
Bruce
Hello John:
While I certainly would have enjoyed reading a chapter on the old 300 H&H, I know it's considered antiquated by most younger shooters, and is assuredly over shadowed by the many newer .300 hot rods.
But, I know I would enjoy sitting by the fireplace on a cold winter day reading this book, and likely learn something new on the other calibers I enjoy.
So, if you will, put me down for a copy as well.
Respects,
Richard
Tripleshock will take a autographed one whwn available.
Buckskin,
Chapter 41 is all about the .300 H&H, so you should be OK!
Works for me!
Really looking forward to this read.
I just tried to send a "form PM" to everybody who said they'd like to get the book, but if I missed you here it is:
Pre-orders can be made by credit-card on our website,
www.riflesandrecipes.com.Media mail shipping is included in the $32.50 price, and we autograph all our books. If you want an individualized autograph, either for yourself or somebody else, let us know in the space provided on the site.
If you have problems with the website (they occur rarely, but do happen) and have a PayPal account, you can also send $32.50 to
[email protected], along with what it’s for and your mailing address.
You can also send a check or money order for $32.50 to Deep Creek Press, PO Box 579, Townsend, MT 59644-0579, with a note including your mailing address, what you’re ordering, and any special autograph requests.
If you prefer ordering by phone call Eileen at 406-521-0273.
If you live outside the U.S. extra shipping will be necessary. If in Canada, our bank charges a LOT to handle checks or money orders, even if in American dollars, so it’s easiest to use a credit card, but we also accept Canadian cash, as we visit your fine country often. It’s probably easiest to phone 406-521-0273, or e-mail
[email protected].
The books will be shipped as soon as the first printing arrives later in the month.
Thanks!
Just ordered it.
I definitely want one. John is the Jack O Conner, John Wayne of this century to riflemen, shooters, and hunters.He will be remembered for all he has contributed to sportsmen. Please show him the respect that he has earned and deserves Thank You, John.
I had some issues with the website,so I ordered mine through PayPal.I always have enjoyed reading John's books and I think this will be one of his best.
sweetsues,
Thanks very much for the kind words!
baldhunter,
Most people aren't having problems ordering from the website, but somebody reported that when they ordered as a "guest," rather than registering, it went right through.
Sorry for the problems, but glad ordering through PP worked. And if anybody still has problems, phoning always works.
I just ordered my copy on the website with no problem. I predict that this book will become a classic. I already have a special place on my bookshelf reserved for it. Thank you, John, for bringing this book to fruition.
Just ordered mine hassle-free via PayPal.
I just successfully ordered from your site after logging in (no "guest" checkout), and all went fine. The site does seem to be running a little slow - must be lots of traffic right now!
I ordered from the website with no problems. Looking forward to the book!
I ordered from the web site yesterday
It's starting to look like the occasional problem may be related to the amount of traffic we've been getting on the website, which is probably heavier than we've ever had before. Here's what happened with somebody who was having problems:
"When it asks you to 'confirm order' it returned an error message that PayPal would not process the order. These were three banners on top of each other on the same order review page. I said 'what the heck' and clicked the confirm button again to see what would happen and it went through."
Didn't want to reply to the group PM, but I ordered yesterday and all indications are a go.
Thanks for the PM
I do not handle websites well - too old and technologically challenged. I called Eileen and not only got my order done easily, but got to converse with a nice lady.
MD - if you would - please post a list of your currently available books.
I need to start ordering!
Sure--
LIFE OF THE HUNT and BORN TO HUNT are both collections of big game hunting stories in various places, with a little other stuff thrown in.

More details are available on riflesandrecipes.com, along with some other stuff, including Eileen's cookbooks.
My wife interjected and is getting it for me for Christmas...will you tell me if that didn't happen, LOL!
Who am I to complain...now my play money will got elsewhere!
Good deal!
I forgot to mention one other book, RIFLE LOONY NEWS: THE FIRST FIVE YEARS, co-authored with my wife Eileen Clarke.
"RIFLE LOONEY NEWS: THE FIRST FIVE YEARS" is going to be my next purchase,after deer season is over......you know priorities.
While we're patiently waiting....
I'm not a shotgunner but read, enjoyed and learned a bunch with SHOTGUNS FOR WINGSHOOTING. It was especially enlightening on load and choke selection that corrected some misperceptions from my rifle-centric upbringing. Well done. Recommend to all.
Glad you like SHOTGUNS FOR WINGSHOOTING!
Must confess, however, that was one of the books Eileen and I wrote for various publishing companies that pushed us into self-publishing. When the publisher originally approached me, their proposal was for a very "affordable" book, under $20 cover price, which meant that with the standard royalty agreement I'd get maybe $1.50 for each book sold, and most gun books don't sell more than a few thousand copies these days. It just wasn't worth my time to write it, and I told them so.
So they came back with a proposal to do a hardcover with color photos. The cover price would be enough higher than the first book to up the royalty considerably. So I said OK, and my contract was to deliver the manuscript and photos a year later.
They contacted me a month later and said if I could get it done in three months, a major bookstore chain would buy a bunch of copies and display them prominently. So I said OK, and got it done.
Well, they liked my photos so much they then decided to turn it into a coffee-table style book, printed on high-grade shiny paper with over 100 photos. Trouble was, this meant the cover price was $49.95. Now, even general book buyers go into sticker shock on books priced much over $30, and not many hunters are willing to pay 50 bucks for a book just because of pretty pictures. I told them this was a mistake, but they considered themselves publishing geniuses and said that's what they were gonna do.
In the meantime, the accelerated publishing schedule made them "forget" to send me page proofs before publication, to correct any set-up errors. This procedure is in every publishing contract. There were some errors, including a few from the guy who edited the manuscript.
Turned out I was right and the book didn't sell well. I never saw any royalties because my advance was never amortized--and the advance was as much as I make writing 2-3 magazine articles.
Other than the advance, the only money I made on the book was selling it on our website. But even the reduced price we could buy it for (about what bookstores pay) meant we had to sell it for $35 to make any money, but within a year we were seeing it for sale in various places for $25. We asked the publishing company about this, and they said they'd "remaindered" the book, basically selling it for the printing cost to book retailers. Also in my contract was a clause to be informed of a decision to remainder, giving me first option on buying books, but again they somehow "forgot" to tell me. Did manage to buy a few hundred at that point, which are what we're selling on our website for $26, which includes shipping.
A few months later the same publisher approached me about doing a hunting rifle book along the same lines. This meant THEY made money on my shotgun book, probably from the big bookstore deal. I told them I'd need a lot more money up front, but their best offer was way below what I needed.
That, however, was far from the worst of our experiences with traditional publishers. Had to take another one to court because he was cooking the account books to totally screw me out of royalties for a book that sold very well.
All of which is why we now have total control of our book publishing, including the account books!
Good on you for going it on your own.
That sucks John! I can completely see why you went to self publishing. I always figured it was simply due to getting a more fair cut of the profits, but if publishing houses were outright screwing you...
Glad it has worked out in the long run though.
Actually did OK on 3-4 books we did with traditional, but with most we would have been better off publishing ourselves. The Internet and digital printing made that far more practical than ever before, the reason so many writers are self-publishing these days.
There've always been problems in any business that supposedly pays royalties to authors, musicians, artists and even inventors. A lot of people are greedy, and also think they're smarter about making money than writers, musicians, artists and inventors. In some ways they're right, but the combination of greed and a superior attitude sometimes leads to outright theft!
JB,
It is disturbing to hear how you were treated by that publisher. It makes me mad. If only everyone would just treat others the way they would like to be treated the world would be a much better place.
I am not much of a shotgunner, but I just went to the websight and ordered the book as a show of support for you and Eileen. It gave me an excuse to order the Loony Hat that I forgot to add on to my order for the Gun Gack book.
I have most of your books and have enjoyed every one of them. I am looking forward to some great reading this winter.
John,are the books going to be in next week?
Yes,I'm impatient.
They are supposed to show up today or tomorrow.
John:
Put me down as first in line.
Confirmed order, one book post haste.
I pass these on to my Grandson regularly.
Return details and I will shoot to you the payment.
You should already have my previous mailing address on record

Bill: John has a website you can visit to order a book. It's very easy. Google search "rifles and recipes."
I want to be like William E Tibbe.......several dozen posters spoke up wanting his book, many went ahead and ordered it, yet William E Tibbe comes along a hundred posts later and is first in line. That man demands respect I'd say.
Yeah...not to mention that he threw a fit when he found out what was going to be in the book since he "knew it all 30yrs ago." But dammit...he's gonna be first in line even though dozens of us have already paid for our copy.

You started reloading at 13, still can't figure out how to adjust a set of dies, maligned JB publicly before jumping like a school girl at the new book, and still can't figure out how to actually order the book in the first place?
The only thing you've been at for 70 years is being a fraud in NY State, and that you're continuing for posterity it seems.
What,cutting to the front of the line?
Apologies to John for hi-jacking his thread.
Well, back on topic. The book should arrive just in time to provide some good reading whilst I'm recovering from wrist surgery. 8 weeks in a cast.

Ordered mine today. Looking forward to a great read.....
And MD, don't know if I was included on the Group PM, but to let you know I never received it.

John's wife is a treasure and based on the several cookbooks I have of hers a stunning cook. I look forward to John's reloading book as I'm sure it has a similar amount of great information from his past books that populate my reloading/hunting/rifle bookshelves.

I also have several of Johns and Eileen books.
We are indeed fortunate to have such talented Americans in our leisure past time.
Put on your thinking cap. I was complaining about the foul language and insults unsuitable for a lady.

Tibbe,
Waiting for what??????
I already told you that I answered down in the miscellaneous section.
But just to be accommodating exactly what more are you waiting for.

Go down to the miscellaneous section, my post is sill sitting there. You haven't answered.
My apologies for the hijack.

Do you often complain about things that you think might offend others?
There's a name for that.

You mean like calling me "ELK P****Y" in another thread?
William E Tibbe:
You would make a significant contribution to the 24HCF if you never posted here again.
Please consider that. You have a lot of us rooting for that approach.

Disregard my comment on the PM. One of these day I may actually be smart enough to use this modern technology (though I doubt it).

http://www.riflesandrecipes.com/ Their new book is in the Rifle and bullet books. Click on that, then click add to cart in it's bottom left corner. And checkout. If that doesn't work I think he put up their phone number in one of these threads. It can be ordered that way too.
Thanks Mog. I was able to get things up and running. Now I get to look forward to some great reading
You weren't kidding about it being a big book!
Yeah, but part of that is print somewhat larger than we usually use. Finally figured out that many of out customers prefer larger print, partly because we do too!
Still, it is a big book.
Order sent. I haven't read all of the stuff on this thread so will ask: John, are you still signing the books?

I'm not complaining and my aging eyes will appreciate the larger print.
Kimber7man,
We sign every book we ship--or at least we try to. If one isn't, then we'll pay for shipping it back and forth.
I can't guarantee, however, that my signature is entirely legible. But neither have been most of the signatures on books from other authors in my collection!
Mule Deer I would like one as well.
"Shotguns For Wingshooting": MtnBoomer's right, that's a good shotgun book. It's worth owning for the photography alone.
Just ordered mine yesterday. Getting a signed one would be a real bonus.

Hope to have mine in this week. Really looking forward to the bigger print. I've started wearing my wife's reading glasses for normal size print.
Just ordered a copy looks to be a good read.
Thanks John.
