    Old alliant / hercules loading manuals

    Hello.
    Can anybody point me to an online source for previous editions of Alliant loading data?
    Thank you for any help and apologies if this information is already on CastBoolits.

    Old thread but try this:

    https://web.archive.org/web/20230000...ding%20manuals

    There's a bunch of old archived manuals that may be of some help if you have some old obsolete powder.

    Or here:

    I have purchased many of the older manuals on Ebay. Take a look, someone may be selling the one you want.
    Good Luck, and Happy Easter!

    I have one of the old Hercules 1985 manuals left over from my trap and skeet shooting days. It has load data for shotgun, rifle, and pistol of their powder in that year. It is yours if you want it, free of charge. Just send me your mailing address by pm on this site and I will get it out to you. james

    I am still using Hercules Unique powder from around 1985 so the loading data there - from 1985 - is what I use.
