Best price on Hornady reloading manual

[fivehundredlimited]

Hi guys,
I'm looking to pick up a copy of the Hornady 9th edition reloading manual since it include load data for the .17 hornet. Cabela's has it for $56 anyone know of a better price on it in Canada?
Thanks,
Fivehundred

As much as I like having a book in hand, if you have an Apple device the manual is only $19.99 on iBooks.

Thanks GMC, I like that price better, but the only apple device I have is an Ipod nano. I don't think I can load books to it.

Is there a reason to buy the books these days?
Between the free online data posted by Hodgdon, Nosler, Barnes, etc, you can usually find whatever powder/bullet combo you are after. Not trying to be a #### or anything, just wondering if I'm missing something?

I think hodgdon only listed 4 or 5 loads for the .17 hornet and the 9th edition of the Hornady manual said it features .17 hornet load data so I figured it might list a few extra options. Maybe someone with the manual could double check this.

Because if you're using Hornady projectiles having a Hornady manual is probably a good thing to have.
I still reference my other manuals as well as checking Hodgdon online but you can never have enough info when loading.

$40 is a good price at Higginson's, it's $63 on Amazon. ca

If you download "reloading assistant" app for your phone it has some data in there....free too.

books are obsolete, you can find most online nowadays

Which hornady .17 projectiles did you want data for? If you private message me your email I'll send you a picture of that page out of my manual.

 

[fivehundredlimited]

The .17 hornet for the 20gr VMAX.

I know OP is asking for a canadian source. unfortunately we got ripped off here. I got my copy when I was on a trip in US. It was shipped from amazon.com to my hotel. US$25 with NO TAX. still cheaper than here even with the crazy exchange rate.
