    A bit dated, but a great reference book. Very interesting reading. Recommend it for all handloaders. I would buy it myself if I did not already have a copy.

    Sharpe was one of the most scientific of the trans-war gun authors. I have the book too, or would buy this one.

    I would buy it if I had the money to spare, but my funds are limited & get worse as the Winter comes on. I will have to make do with the online version I downloaded for the time being.

    G'Luck! on your sale of it. I think it is a pretty fair price for that book.

    This is the 1953 second edition, it has all the information of previous editions plus a lot of good stuff on the Hollywood line. Information not found in print anywhere else.

    If you collect old reloading tools Sharpe's books are must have.

    I am working on a review of Sharpe's books for the December Old Tool Journal as we speak.
