Lyman 49th Edition Reloading Handbook,July 28, 2009
By gunrunrfrom Jefferson IA
"I have several reloading books. Nobody beats the amount of information that Lyman puts in thier books. I put tens of thousands of rounds down range each year. I get 99% of the loads that I use for both hunting and plinking out of Lyman. With todays advances with so many powders and alloys they seem to be the leaders in adding to a already large variety of different bullets,powders, casings, primers, etc. I look forward to the new edition from lyman every year."

Handload information,July 16, 2009
By JESSRfrom Pittsburgh, Pa
"The Book contains all the info that I need for reloading.
I perfer the format of the earlier editions that had the spiral binding because they would lay flat as compared to the new glue binding.
I am impressed with the amount of additional information that is included in the new edition as compared to the older issues."

lyman 49th edition,March 9, 2009
By lazedazfrom Nevada
"Most info from earlier versions. My interest in .224 yielded no data on bullets heavier than 60 grains. Correspondance with lyman was unsatisfactorily. I returned the book to Cabelas. Their service was EXCELLENT as usual. I bought a Sierra 5th edition manual. Very good."

Like many others,February 23, 2009
By Vagabondfrom Deerfield Beach, FL
"This is another manual full of good information - the frustrating thing is that you have to get so many to have the info you want - it's partially available in this one, partially available in Speer's and in Sierra's and in Barnes and at the powder companies, etc. Here's a new product idea - how about a DVD/CD with all the data from the manufacturers in one place? Not just manuals on CD, but a searchable database so you can select an available component in a specific caliber and see how you can load it."

Review 11 for Lyman 49th Edition Reloading Handbook
"As with all Lyman reloading books I have this one is filled with information for the novice to the expert and all between. I just purchased a 7MM WSM and the other 2 Lyman books had no info on this cal. Very informative from start to finish on step by step on reloading. Newer powders and calibers listed in the 49th edition. Would recommend to any one needing info on newer calibers."

49th edition,February 5, 2009

"I was disapointed. I thought that it would contain more loads. The one thing I do like is the amount of loads for lead bullets. I still believe that the Lee manual is the best."

Lyman 49th Ed. Paperbound Reloading Handbook,January 2, 2009
By Comproffrom Deep South
"In my reloading library of over 30 different texts, I own 7 Lyman reloading manuals. They cover most of the different available types of reloading; shotgun, metallic, cast bullet. As usual, the 49th ed. is full of interesting information, useful reloading data and functional commentary.
Lyman manuals are not nearly as proprietary as those from powder distributors, bullet manufacturers or other self interested organizations. As a result, they have more data about many different powders, primers, brass and bullets than do any of the others. I usually consult the Lyman manuals first before going to the other sources.
The printing quality is not as good as earlier Lyman publications, but that is not a fault with Lyman, rather that is typical of the print industry as a whole. The information is great, the attention to ballistic detail evident, the interest in the subject area superior, the loads included cover most of the old favorites and the newest rounds, and, especially in the paperback edition, the cost quite low. It is a bargain. I highly recommend the 49th edition."
