That older Hornady Vol 2 was a great book. It was developed when Joyce Hornady was alive and all loads were developed in production rifles. I have found over the years that the loads I have referenced (after the event, as I develop my own loads) were overall very close to what I achieved.


Yes it was a great manual. I've used the 139 Gr Hornady load in that book for 35 years worth of bang flops.
