    Basic Handloading Book

    I have a 1978 soft cover copy of George C. Nonte Jr.s Basic Handloading that I would like to pass along.
    180 pages of knowledge on loading rifle, pistol, shotshells, etc. Lots of good basic info here.
    There is a chapter on casting and loading boolits as well.
    I would like this book to go to a new reloader/caster.
    There is a catch. When you are done reading it, in a reasonable amount of time, you will put it back up here to be passed to another, at your expense. If you do not pass it on, you will be cursed by the Boolit gods.
    When they are done, they will do the same. Keep passing it on, so that many will get to read it.
    THIS BOOK DOES NOT GO INTO YOUR LIBRARY.
    Anyone interested post here so I can decide who gets it first.....dale

    Theres a kid I'm mentoring, he's learning to shoot and reload now and will be casting soon, I hope. I think this would be a good book for him to read. If no one else needs it I would like to use it for a while.

    Thanks

    Hi Dale. Looks like you're missing a word.

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

    I am interested! I am still in the stage where I read everything I can get my hands on concerning reloading and casting! I would love to be able to read this one.

    I've got a copy of that and love it! Lots of good info in there and I still go back to it now and then.
    That's a nice thing your doing Dale!

    I think each person that gets it and reads it should autograph the inside cover.
    Are you in need a pan lube cutter?
    I make custom made cutters in a cutting size of your choice.

    Do not include me, just commenting.

    I have and love this book, I read my first copy of it so many times that it started falling apart and I had to find and buy a second copy.

    This book is back up for grabs. Let me know who needs this and a address. This book is not to keep. It must be passed on when finished reading or photo coping. Thanks.
