It is down to the individual posting to ensure safe standards and to readers to verify what they read - it is they finally who bear responsibility for useage of information. Remember - typos can occur! We strongly recommend that in most cases quoted loads be derived from recognized loading manuals and if possible these should be referenced.

The Hornady Reloading Manual has a decent intro with all the basics. Plus, it has the loads as well. Mine is several years old, but I assume the newest one has the same instructions.

all the above are good. i would also look for some of the older reloading books. look for the ones made in the 1970's and 1980 time frame. they have some good info and reload data.

For actual loads, the most recent manuals are preferred. At an average of $25, having one or two are not out of reach for any hand loader. At the very least, for current data, the on line manual from Hodgden is a great starting point. It covers Hodgden, IMR and Winchester powders with lots of choices per bullet weight. http://data.hodgdon.com/main_menu.asp
