Handloader Oct 2009 addendum

Postby halfslow » Fri Oct 16, 2009 7:11 pm

This month's Handloader (Oct 2009) is packaged with a 12 page booklet titled "AR-Tactical Loads".
It is a loading manual for all the cartridges the AR-15 is available in. There are actually 8 pages of load data.

The data is from http://www.loaddata.com.

It appears that this web page is a subscription service, so here are all the 450 bushmaster loads you can't see without paying, printed out for you.

Holy cow. If you run a search for 450 Bushmaster they have 100 loads listed.

Loaddata.com is owned and operated by Wolf publishing the same folks who own Handloader magazine. All loads on this site are from Bullet or Powder manufactures and I believe there are some from Lyman. The information is checked and updated continuously. It is also very likely that as manufactures test and approve new loads for there particular bullet/powder you will see them there long before they publish there next reload manual.

Ok, and I can't see them either? But in any event we are getting the coverage. Speaking of coverage, "AND" I can't spill the beans just yet, but something is going to be introduced, for us, at the SHOT SHOW in January that will knock your socks off. You will definitely be pleased and excited..

I'm guessing that halfslow meant that the booklet that comes with the October issue of Handloader contains the loading data.

Now that you pointed it out pitted bore, and I reread his post I think you are correct, I misread that thinking he was posting it here.. hehe

Wow, looks like I oughta go into politics.
That post can be read several ways.

Pitted bore is correct. The addendum is a printed partial listing of the online loads.

I hope no one takes it personally, but I didn't think it was appropriate to scan the 450 BM page yet. The issue just came out a few weeks ago.

The 250 FTX loadings in the addendum are exactly the same as on the Hornady website:
http://www.hornady.com/media/ftx_load_d ... er_ftx.pdf

The loads for the 240 XTP/MAG and 300 XTP/MAG in the addendum are credited to Hornady as well.

halfslow-

I haven't received that issue yet. Did the addendum contain any 450B loads for any but the 240-, 250- and 300-grain bullets? Inquiring minds want to know if the loaddata folks added any 200-grain or lighter bullets to the Hornady line-up.

Not posting copyrighted material is ok.

Thanks.
