Reloading for Shotgunners 5th Edition
The Classic Reference Bigger and Better than Ever!
One of the most respected reloading texts of all time, Reloading for Shotgunners is now bigger, more comprehensive and more profusely illustrated than ever! This all-new fifth edition includes exhaustive data for lead and non-toxic shot - and it goes well beyond the ho-hum 2-3/4" 12-gauge data contained in other books. From .410 bore to 10-gauge magnum, from 2" hulls to the mammoth 3-1/2", if it can be fired in a shotgun, it's in the book!
Rick Sapp, co-author of The Gun Digest Book of Trap & Skeet, has outdone himself in creating this masterful compilation of shotgun reloading data. Whether you're a novice shotgunner or a seasoned reloader, you can't afford to be without this ground-breaking fifth edition of Reloading for Shotgunners.
