It's always good to have on hand data from the manufacturer of the bullets you intend to use.  In your case it appears that would be Barnes & Nosler.

See if you can find some of the books by Skeeter Skelton, Elmer Keith, Ken Waters, etc.  See how reloading has progressed over the last 50 years.  You will learn a lot and benefit from these great writers.

I'd wait and get the Hornady 8th edition. It'll be out soon and will be up to date and accurate!  ;D

Get the manual for the bullet manufacturer(s) you intend to use.

Ken Waters "Pet Loads" is still a good reference, though it's becoming a bit dated now.

If you're using a lot of Hodgon powder you may want their manual. Most of the powder companies have downloadable guides.
