Which is the better edition for a rookie?

[Major Sights]

The ABCs Of Reloading: The Definitive Guide for Novice to Expert

8th Edition


OR,


9th Edition?

Get latest edition, will have everything the 8th has and probably some additions.

+1 on that. Another good book I picked up was "Modern Reloading Second Edition" By Robert Lee, of Lee Precision. The load data inside is kinda dry and I use a ruler or business card to make sure I get the right rows across in the charts, but the first third of the book has some great explanations on how things are done.

I also have the 49th edition of the Lyman Reloading handbook, which I think is laid out far better. I also like the little informative blurb that comes with each group of loads.

Looked for the ABC's of Reloading and can not find it. Any ideas as to who has it in stock?

Try Abe Books online.

It is private sellers but Abe is kind of like the broker.

Can get new and/or used there.

The copy I was looking at was at Amazon.ca

ABCs is arguably the best intro to what you will be doing but is short on load data. For that, you'll need a manual published by any of the manufacturers such as Lee, Hornady, Speer, etc (they're all good).
