    Reloaders Reference question

    Is there a bibliography listing the load references (source) in detail? Such as date or number.

    I'm not exactly sure what you're looking for. How much powder with a particular bullet in a particular cartridge? If so, you need to refer to a (three is better) reloading manual. If you're looking for an index of postings in this forum on a certain subject, you'll get where you want more quickly using the search feature in the upper right portion of the page in the blue bar.

    Regards,

    Stew

    AZ-Stew, I do believe he is talking about Wiljen's Reloader's Reference program.

    And I do not know if there is a list of sources for those loads. Perhaps you would get the best answer by PMing Wiljen.

    I was referring to the column headed LoadSource in Wiljen's Reloaders Reference in the load tables. I am doing some load research where that info would be useful to assess whether to use that particular load or not.

    I will go the PM route, Thanks

    Great Program, I Love this multitude of Information. I made some changes to the program to include some of the items that I like to have included. Not being familiar with any programing at all, I was able to deciefer the Code, Tables, Forms, Reports and add the following Items. Its just the way I like it.

    In the Inventory Menu the following items are added.
    Reloading Dies- Add / Edit / Search
    Live Ammo Inventory- Add / Edit / Search
    Primer Inventory- Primer Inventory (Table)
    Firearms- Add To Inventory (Blank Form)
    Powder Inventory- Powder Inventory (Table)
    Reloading Cost Calc- Fixed, and included costs for New and Reloaded Ammo
    Print Inventories- Added Reloading Dies and Caliber Search, Previews and Print
    Print Inventories- Added Live Ammo and Cartridge Search, Previews and Print

    In the Reference Section, Added
    Dillion 450-550 Caliber Conversions

    In the Firearms Manuals, Added
    Add to Manuals for Each Manual

    In the Targets, Added
    Add Targets and Search Targets by Group

    Fixed Several Names, Descriptions & Layouts of Tables, Forms & Reports

    Yes, the loads are cataloged by source if you open the table underneath the form

    I have tried to upload the RRv9.mdb file under the Reloaders Reference Tracker section, Bugs Patches, I have had no luck getting it though. 30MB file. I have also tried to upload a Zip file, 4.3MB and still no luck. Will Keep Trying

    If anybody would like to try the changes until Wiljen comes out with his Revisons. I have a 4MB Zip file with instructions that can be emailed. It can be opened and tried on its own without modifing your current installation. Just PM or Email me.
