Anyone know where I can get a copy of Col. E. H. Harrison book on cast bullets????
Out of print from NRA. Can't seem to find it anywhere for a reasonable price.

I have a like new copy that I am not selling at this time...
However if you need a particular article copied & mailed, I can do that for you.
Thanks for the offer Rangerone. I may take you up on it. Trying to find one here on this rock.
I wish the NRA would come out with reprints of all the old books they had.
I couldn't find one on this rock so I bit the boolet and put a bid for one on ebay. I won it. Paid $40.00 for it, but Amazon had three with the cheapest at $44.00, so I saved $4.00.
I would be just my luck if NRA comes out with a reprint tomorrow for $10.00.
Months ago I sent the NRA a letter to ask permission to reprint their book. Never got an answer.

You ought to check out the Advanced Book Exchange.

Well thats interesting, it looks like there is exactly the same copy on ABE books as one of Amazons only the ABE book is over twice the price.

If you got it for $40 you done good.
At one with the gun.
Question.....Are all the books signed and numbered? I found a cased copy in an antique store in Gallatin, Tn. last March. The price was $30.00, which I thought was a bit much at the time, but bought it anyway. Sounds like maybe I did a good thing??!! My book is signed by E. H. Harrison and numbered. Emery

I was thinking I paid to much for the book. But looking at what they are going for, I got a good deal. I just hope it's worth it.
Anyone know when NRA ran out of them?????
Amazing! I got mine several years ago along with the supplement and the 3 annuals from Handloader, from Bill Ferguson. He had them at the time. Don't remember what I paid, but it was less than $40 for the whole lot. Sometimes I do get lucky.

Lots of good info in it. A little dated, but seems to still be true today. Anyone know of any other books on cast bullet shooting that would be good to get?????
the Art of Bullet Casting
from Handloader & Rifle magazines 1966- 1981
Published by Wolfe Pub. Co.
P.O. Box 30-30
Prescot, AZ. 86302
This is a very interesting book.

I believe this book and the 3 annuals are only available on DVD now. I'm going to buy it to save wear and tear on my printed copies.Originally Posted by libbyman

RCBS' "Cast Bullet Manual, No. 1" (1986) is worth reading and can be had for very little $$. Its loading data is much more limited than Lyman's "Cast Bullet Handbook, 3rd Ed.," but the chapter on heat-treatment of CB's by Dennis Marshall is excellent. The already mentioned Lyman [hand]book is dated, but quite thorough as well.
I just picked up a copy of Lyman's "Cast Bullet Handbook" 3rd edition, from Boise's new Cabela's store yesterday. Paid $12.49 + tax. It seems to have a lot of info in it - is there anything that I should be aware of, using it?
Thanks,
Don
