Addendum 1 to Ammo and Ballistics 4 Addendum 1 to Ammo and Ballistics 4

New calibres and loads have been appearing each year for well over a century. However, we live in particularly turbulent times as far as ammunition is concerned. Since the release of A&B4, there has been a great many changes, and this has necessitated coming out with an addendum to Ammo & Ballistics 4. Many new lead-free loadings have come on the market as well as new calibres: .17 Remington Fireball, 6.5 Creedmoor, .308 Marlin Express, .300 Ruger Compact Magnum, .338 Ruger Compact Magnum, .450-400 Nitro Express, and .416 Ruger. In addition, there are calibers previously not commercially loaded but now offered once more (.50 BMG) and 350 new factory loads that were not covered in the original edition of Ammo & Ballistics 4.

Handloaders's Index Handloaders's Index

Getting started handloading can be bewildering when confronted with so many choices in handloading tools. Which one to choose? How much does it cost? The Handloader’s Index is a useful product information resource to clear the confusion. Logically arranging it into sections on “Presses,” “Case Prep Tools,” “Dies,” and so on, and then by manufacturer makes it quick and easy to find a specific tool and compare features and cost. The “marketing-speak” descriptions are apparently written by the manufacturers, but that doesn’t diminish the information presented.
Handloader’s Index does not review any products or rate one maker’s tool over another’s. Based on my 30 years of handloading, I will tell you openly that among handloading tools “higher price” does not always equate to “better.” No, a Ford is not a Ferrari, but both will get you to the grocery store. None of the major manufacturers of handloading tools makes junk, so the important things to look at in tools are the features, the warranties, customer service satisfaction and the price – and whatever else matters to you. Follow your own priorities and you will most likely be happy with your purchase.
Handloader’s Index is by no means comprehensive; Lyman’s fine products, for example, are not represented at all, nor are any of the makers of obsolete or uncommon brass, bullets and dies, such as Quality Cartridge (qual-cart.com) or Buffalo Arms Company (buffaloarms.com). The publication similarly ignores all the smaller manufacturers of innovative and esoteric tools and supplies. While valuable and informative for beginners and for those with limited experience, for these reasons advanced handloaders will not get as much from the Handloader’s Index.

My Main Obsession. Guardia Vazquez. My Main Obsession. Guardia Vazquez.

Ricardo Guardia Vázquez has hunted around the world and in some fascinating places. He lives in Central America and was fortunate to have hunted jaguars on numerous occasions, both in his own “backyard” and in South America. He could even be called “cat crazy,” as he has multiple hunts for ocelots, pumas, leopards, and a lion, which he has noted in his game diaries.


But his hunts did not stop there; he came north and hunted in the Lower Forty-Eight and Canada for Rocky Mountain goat, black bear, grizzly, caribou, moose, mule deer, whitetail, and more. In Africa, besides lion and leopard, he shot an elephant and buffalo as well as sable, kudu, and numerous other antelopes on multiple safaris.
His stories are vignettes out of a life of hunting over more than four decades, and whether he pursues tropical whitetail and jaguar in the sweltering Central American jungle, gemsbok and leopard in the dry and dusty semideserts of Africa, or moose and grizzly in the cold tundra of North America, his stories are sure to entertain.

BP Cartridge Reloading Primer. Garbe, Venturino. BP Cartridge Reloading Primer. Garbe, Venturino.

New 9th Edition
This is it…the standard reference work for loading the black powder cartridge rifle. Written by 4-time National BPCR Silhouette Champion Steve Garbe and world-renowned gun writer Mike Venturino this is the first and only guide you will need to successfully reload black powder cartridges.
The Black Powder Cartridge Rifle Primer takes off from the point that the reader understands basic cartridge reloading but doesn’t know the specific techniques uniquely associated with black powder reloading. It walks the reader through the basic techniques such as powder compression, setting up over-all cartridge length with specific bullets, fouling management, bullet alloys, correct sizing, wads, drop tubing powder, bullet seating and case cleanup. There are specific chapters written by Steve Garbe on loading the match cartridge and a special chapter on loading the popular .32-40 and .38-55 cartridges for best accuracy. The authors have included a chapter on how to pick the best black powder cartridge for your needs.
Twenty-two different black powder cartridges are listed with specific sample loads that will get you on the road to optimum accuracy in your BPC rifle as well as ballistic charts for bullets from .32 to .50 caliber. There is also an equipment listing that puts you in the loop on where to find supplies for black powder reloading.
There are many other manuals dealing with the topic of black powder cartridge reloading but none backed up by the practical experience and match-tested techniques that Steve Garbe and Mike Venturino have acquired over their many years of competing and hunting with the BPC rifle.
It consists of 124 pages, 60 photos, and numerous charts, spiral bound in tough “shop-proof” paper designed to lie flat on your reloading bench and will last for many years. Guaranteed to be a constant source of reference and simply “just the facts” on black powder cartridge reloading.
