I have the latest greatest edition, and the Advantages IV Manual has better loading data for Steel, so I basically wasted $13 dollars on the Steel manual.

I am beginning to see Ned's point about them.

the data in the book is not much good. its the reading that you are paying for...or did you skip over that part? :huh:

I read that, but I also bought the Reloading for Shotgunners, I think you might have recommended that, and the latest Lyman manual and they are far better as far as information goes.

ya. i like them all, but the status of steel is the worst for data. i havent ever used a load from it. i just like the reading section.

the mighty 10ga is pretty good reading too, but not much for data... but most of ballistic products data and products are lacking compared to some other stuff... the decimax is kinda neat, but it doesnt do anything you cant do with the sp10 for 1/2 the price. u can even duplicate most of their steel data with an sp10 and a wrap... thats saying somethin

I use the CSD078/Herco loads a lot,
that's one good load in their manual.
Also used their Solo1250 load data for that wad.
Good loads.

You don't need status of steel if you have Advantages. Someone should have told you that.

I like it for it's variety. I have a lot of old components I like to play with.
