i am new to reloading. i have a Dillon Xl650 press. Dose anyone have an opinion on which is a better Reloading book Hornady or Nosler?
Mdi,Hmmm, you got a Dillon 650 before you got a manual? Start with The ABCs of Reloading, a copy of Lyman's 49th or 50th, a manual from the manufacturer of the bullets you choose (Hornady, Sierra, Nosler, etc.). Read these then unbox your progressive, and good luck.
Go slow, double check everything, and be safe...
What reloading books date to 1898 (or earlier)? I ENJOY reading the historical ones and I thought I had one of the earliest ones, Handloading Ammunition, by Mattern, from 1926, but it appears that this book isn't even close to being one of the earliest ones out there.FRANKLY, they're all better !!! Every one of 'em without exception. I have a seven foot[7'] bookshelf with loading data going back to 1898 and sometimes it is still NOT enough.
BUT 'EM ALL...you will need them.
And so it goes...
