I bought it because it was advertised as having a bunch of new 264 mag loading data. Well the data is lame and i dont care for the format they used in making the manual. Oh well a guy cant have to many manuals. But this one isnt one id give my stamp of appoval to.

This is why I am such a big cheerleader for Quickload. I haven't used a load manual in years. Especially shooting boolits - 95% of what I shoot isn't in any load book anyway. The load manuals are entertaining reading but not nearly as useful for actually working up loads.

To be fair Lloyd they did use 9 new powders in the 140 gr data, but they all are too fast IMHO. US 869 and RL25 show loads that equal factory RP and Win 140 loadings. If you have a jug of WC872 or 5010 setting around you have the makings of fast and ACCURATE 140 and 160 gr loads.

What number is that? Is it Speer 14, or have they come out with a Speer 15 now?

14 as far as I know, that's what I was quoting from, HOPE:)

The reason I asked was because I don't really think of Speer 14 as new. I know "newest" means most recent. I just wondered if they had released a new one now.
