On-Line Reloading Data?

[Show Me]

Also power choices were few in the seat of the pants days

When W296/H110 was released it did have a DO NOT REDUCE label on it. Several years later they revised the data saying you could reduce by 3%. This data is found in the early load data the Win gave away with the powder in the 70's & 80's.

Another example of using the latest info

Here’s a screenshot of the current release of the Sierra app:

.38Special +P with a 158gr JSP and 11gr of 2400.
Yup. It’s still there.

Been meaning to get back to you. We were talking cast 38 special loads and you brought up a +p load to prove a point. So I still can't find a modern load in 38 sp with 2400,if you can let me know.

Lee dies come with some pretty extensive load data. "Modern Reloading" has the data from most of the powder companies combined into a single book.

Well, I am partial to books (I'm an 'nix engineer by trade and loading is how I get away from freakin' computers), but you said app. AFAIK, there is only 1 comprehensive software package that includes a huge load data library, and also let's you model loads, called Quick Load. It's fairly complex, but millions of rednecks have figured it out. It's also a european product, so there's some weirdness in getting it.....because of import/export laws it has to be ordered and shipped via physical media. If you do a lot of loading, of a lot of rounds, and like to try new things and push the envelope..it's well worth it. You can get it here: https://www.neconos.com/?

If you want a fairly inclusive website, https://loaddata.com/ It's pretty decent and has a LOT of load data, from lots of sources, and includes virtually every loading manual in print. Cheap annual fee. I use it a lot to verify loads I've sourced elsewhere.

Very good! I'm not such a computer head and find it easier to flip pages when looking for whatever even when you don't know what your looking for

My favorite source is Hodgdon website which has Hodgdon, Winchester, IMR, Accurate and Ramshot brands. It’s been 10 years since I’ve bought a manual, but some people prefer books.

On line info is a good source - until the internet goes down, then you’re screwed. I want something more permanent. That’s why I purchase hard copies like Airborne falcon (posted above). I have my sources no matter what happens in the future.

I do use “on line” sources, but when I do I print hard copies on the computer.

Hodgdon's online manual is my go-to source. I have one hardback guide that I've had for years. I always like to cross reference several sources. In addition to my hardback copy and Hodgdons site I like to look at Nosler, Barnes, Alliant, and Ramshot's data too. Hornady shows some data online.
