Nosler manual #8 , has anyone got Nosler's new reloading manual #8 local
store has it is stock for $25, does it have the newer powders in it like both
of the CFE 223 and pistol data ?
They did not have any opened so I could not peek :banghead:
 
I didn't notice too much of a difference between #7 and #8 on pistol powders but on three rifle calibers I am working with right now , 6.8 spc , 300 blk and 6.5 creedmoor, there was quite a bit more info including more bullet sizes and some more (newer) powders.
The newer powders for 6.8 spc were LT-30 and 1200-MR.
I see more powders like,Hunter ,Big Game ,RL17, MRP and so on a lot more often.
If you already have #7 and you load established calibers then the upgrade to #8 might not be worth it. I think there is enough difference especially in 300 blk and 6.5 creedmoor that for me it was worth it.

Mostly rifle data

I like the manual so no bashing here.

Everything I checked is on their web site so most likely you can look at it on line then decide if it is for you.

It is my first Nosler so I have nothing to compare it to.

I don't have it in front of me but I think there were hundreds pages of rifle data and only 57 or so of handgun.

Most likely it covers every bullet Nosler makes.
 
Just looked at it the handgun and rifle info I use was unchanged from their #7 so I passed
