enough to make good handgun loads in a time of scarcity.
Not as groundbreaking as the first edition. In today's world most of the reloading material is magazine length and most people seem to think going through the motions as seen on YouTube is learning - it's really just going through the motions. Mr. Sweeney knows his stuff and includes enough in his books to make them well worthwhile.
