The problem with Handloader (besides that it has been dumbed down), is that it is getting stale. The mag is the same writers (real and imagined), writing the same articles based on the same material. You can only regurgitate the same material so many times. Accepting outside articles would change that.
I'll state this a second time: if you want good, detailed, eclectic reloading articles, subscribe to Varmint Hunter Magazine. It come out 4 or 6 times a year (can't remember which) and has lots of hard info. When I am researching a new caliber, I goto their back issues first before digging thru Handloader. Varmint Hunter is more likely to have the info, and it will be more in-depth.
