Here you go. I also sent you a PM before I dug out "the old book". Hope this helps.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190921/6b8ea7097b56aaaea924eac96617eabf.jpg

They are a fine rifle and the .300 Savage will get the job done for most of us.

Not sure of the edition but it’s a Lyman bought new in the early 1970s. The covers are long gone. It’s data and bullets differ from the Lyman Cast Handbook in several instances so I consult both.

It appears to be Lyman 45th.

It looks like my 1967 44th edition Lyman reloading manual, the first manual where every load was pressure tested in a ballistics lab.
