Got a new Lyman Reloading Manual

I've got to say I'm pretty disappointed in my new Lyman reloading manual.....I noticed my old manual didn't have any load data for my new .17 Hornet or my .300 AAC so I figured it was time to upgrade to the latest and greatest...well it doesn't list either cartridge in the 49th edition either. I guess I'll stick with the data from powder websites, I always like having a good backup manual to validate that the loads listed are sensible before I use them. I've always been a big fan of Lyman's manual because they use such a wide variety of components rather than just their own products like most of their competitors.
 
Lyman published the AR Reloading Handbook with some 300 BLK data. It does make for some interesting reading but the regular Hornady manual is much more complete.

That's where I'm headed next....it used to be in all the magazine racks around here but for whatever reason I haven't seen any in a couple years. I'll have to try Barnes and Noble, I hate going in that yuppie paradise but you gotta do what you gotta do.
