    Do I Need a New Book?

    I am new to the forum so I have been going through the old posts for info, reviews, opinions, etc that I've missed. I've noted significant differences in loading data between what has been posted and my 1975 edition of the "Lyman Black Powder Handbook." Has more modern research/testing been...
