Apart from Lyman, does anyone else publish a comprehensive reloading manual for cast bullets?

I've seen a couple of cast bullet books, but they are all written for beginners. Usually they have details that not all of us will agree with. I recommend this web site though: http://www.lasc.us/

In addition to ours, of course.

Try Lyman Cast Bullet Handbook #3 and #4. The NRA put one out, too and a supplement to it, also.

Wolfe Publishing has an extensive library of articles. Their DVD is good.

The Luman are some of the best- I have several. You might also look for Veral Smiths Jacketed Performance with Cast Bullets, EH Harrisons CastBullets (NRA publication),Handloaders The Art of Bullet Casting- there is also a lot out there in PDF files that people have collected and published- let google help you!

The articles of Glenn Fryxel on the LASC site are particularly worth a read especially this one.

The NRA book and supplement are well worth seeking out, there are available electronically along with other classic tomes on our sister site Cast Pics.

The Wolfe magazine publucations are also worth a look although they are now only available from Wolfe on CD now.

The four Lyman editions are classics, the RCBS is a fine little book and deals with heat treating bullets well.

CB the book is also worth a look.
