ADI new reloading manual

Post by Camel »

Got an email from ADI this morning, they have slimmed it down this edition, leaving out a lot of cartridges that they consider unpopular and obscure. A quick browse through the list they have left out raised a couple of eyebrows. The reason given for slimming it down was to save postage and printing costs, :roll: Maybe that is the case, I dunno, wouldn't have thought buyers would be upset about a couple of bucks more for the whole manual. Who knows.

Here is a link to the cartridges they are leaving out, thought it would come in handy as I know more than a few on here have a rifle chambered in one or more of these cartridges. Might pay to save the link for future reference.

Not the .30-378!!!
Interesting the number of rifle cartridges they have removed from the pistol list (like the .22 Hornet).

I spose that data for rifle cartridges in pistols would have been for Thompson/Center break action types.

They gave the 25 cal a good caning in the rifle data section, 25/303, 25/308 (Souper) still plenty of rifles getting around in those chamberings. At least they can't cut the 25 Camel from their loading data. :wink:

I am not 100% sure but I believe the data is still available online at the ADI site. 218 bee is certainly there.

Yeah, I think they are leaving it in the online version.
