I use this religiously.

Another note, I always check a couple of load books before deciding what I am going to use as a starting load.

I personally believe that a cronograph is invaluable for reloading. Without one, you are pretty much flying blind.

X10 on the Lyman recommendation. It's one of my favorite books, of any type. It isn't the cheapest, but you don't want to be pigeonholed.

I would highly recommend the A-Square manual "Any Shot You Want". It was some of the best reading I've seen on handloading rifle ammo.

Plus they give recommendations for the 105x608mm!!!!! Those are some eye-popping loads.

BTW if you want their recommended loads for the .270 just shoot me a pm.

If I could only have one loading manual, it would be "Modern Reloading" by Richard Lee. Here is a link to it on Midwayusa.com

Best price anywhere is at midway. It will sell for tripple on amazon and other sites.. Blitzfike

Hodgen carries load data online. Aside from that I look at bullet type when I don't have a manual. Pretty much all 165gr spitzer bt's will be close to the same size etc. . . but definately start at the smallest listed load
