    Well.......that is a BIG violation is several copyright laws!

    The book is rather big......320 pages.......and I doubt anyone will ever take the time to scan that size of a document.

    And.......It only costs about $21.00.....a small price for the wealth of info in it!

    Just buy the book.

    The link provided is an excellent source for info on why and how to cast & load. The book gives you the actual powder loads for a whole bunch of cast boolits. Saves you hours of time working up your own guesstimate loads.

    Both are a necessity. I use both as well as the Lee book all the time. There are loads in the Lee that are not in the Lyman. I xerox & cut-n-paste the specific loads I use for my boolits I cast and put them in my "Banger's Boolit Bible" to save time in the loading shop. A yellow high-liter come in handy on the copies!

    Have fun!

    Page 36 of this PDF, references three must have titles for the boolit caster's library.

    That look on your face, when you shift into 6th gear, but it's not there.
