New and updated....but don't toss Edition #3 in the trash, some of the older rounds had to be dropped to make room for the newer rounds in the #4, so #3 is still good to have around.

I wouldn't mind owning a third Edition. Alot of pistol powders are used in large volume case i.e. 458 WM and some of the other cartridges. I look for onr each gun show. Might just have to break down and borrow a friends and hit the local Kinkos and put up with their copywrite BS.

There's one on Amazon for $60.00 right now. Might be cheaper than Kinko's and their BS .
Something like 416 pages it would be $41.60 at ten cents a page.

Someone on here posted a link to a downloadable 3rd edition in PDF. I downloaded it and saved on the computer. I also have an original printed of the 3rd as well as the 2nd editions. They are my "go to Bibles".

Maybe someone will come along and post the link to the downloadable 3rd edition as I wasn't able to find it when I went back to look for it.

I also have a downloaded 3rd edition. I really like the entire history of lead projectiles they have in the beginning of the book. It was a great read. Just received the 4th edition in the mail today and was sad to see they removed that from the manual.

I just Uploaded Lyman 3rd to my Google Drive for anyone that would like. I have about 20 different manuals there in PDF, just drop me a PM, I'll send you the share link. And if anyone has something that I don't have there and would like to share that's great too.

I think I found you and downloaded. Thank you very much. I just missed getting the last of the 3rd at Midway for $15, waited forever for the 4th, huge disappointment.

Meanwhile Glen wrote this and gave it away. http://www.lasc.us/Fryxell_Book_Contents.htm Download this for free before you buy anything. I think CBRick did the PDFs.

Mal Paso, thanks for the link to "From Ingot to Target". I also have that available. Good Read!
