    It has been a long time coming but all the manuals, targets, and most importantly Data lookups are now resident on Castpics. Those who were lamenting the issues with the cast data lookup can rejoice - we now have cast, surplus, shotshell, and metalic cartridge data searchable online.

    I tried that site a couple of years ago and couldn't get anything but menus.

    I thought that

    1: they have had two years to "fix" it.
    2: I have a new computer.
    3: Surely it will work now.

    Not so. Nothing but menus and blank pages.

    I have been able to access the load data by searching for it, but is there a direct link anywhere on the home page that takes someone to the load database?

    Did the cartridge specific articles get picked up? Beagle had some wonderful info there. I also confess I never wrote down Juniors trail fry bread recipe or Felix's pear pie. Gone forever?

    Load data lookups are under the reloaders reference section and yes all are linked via the menus.

    All the cartridge specific articles are up. They are under "The bench". Recipes haven't found a home yet but are still there on the old page. http://www.castpics.net/Recipes/default.html

    This is minor and totally meant to be constructive, not complaining:

    When I am at the homepage and scroll over the reloaders reference tab, the menu doesn't come up.

    I have to click on the reloaders reference page, let it lload, and then, with that page loaded, the reloaders reference tab turns a different color and THEN when I scroll on it the drop-down menu shows up, at which point I can then see the page I was looking for in the list.

    Anyway, I am THRILLED to see this data back up. I have truly benefitted from your pages.

    OK, so could someone fill me in on how to get to the articles written by beagle on 22 hornet and 30 carbine and Doc Carlson on 257 Roberts. They don't appear in member articles on castpics or even on advanced search. Where have I gone wrong?

    Thanks JonB! Now how about the M1 carbine article? I thought I tried that "by caliber" but will give it another try. OK, still can't find anything... Nothing on castpics....How about a path. Having no joy on Castpics anymore.
