Reloading manuals

Does anyone know if Berger or Hornady are planning on NEW manuals this year?
 
I bought a year's subscription to Hornady's computer app based book on the promise that I'd also receive a printed copy of their new one "when it came out late last year". Still waiting...:rolleyes:

Hoot

I was gonna say that i thought i bought the Hornady X last year.
It would be too soon to expect another.

Hodgdon & Alliant are yearly.
 
Hornady manual X is dated 2016. Hard to say on Berger.

I have Hornady's #10 and Berger's 1 st edition (signed). I bought them both when they came out. I'm just wondering if either or both had a NEW manual coming out this year or when they might be. The online stuff is fine but I like the book versions better. There's been a lot of new bullets and cartridges brought out from the time these were printed.
 
Hornady's Data site is kept up to date, pretty well and is free on your PC.
As for if they will put out new one's this year, along with Berger, email/call them and ask, then you have the info straight from the horse's mouth...

While we may “like” the printed versions, those cost the makers a lot of money better spent elsewhere. On-line data is far easier and cheaper to produce and maintain, and will always be more up-to-date. This is the 21st Century afterall.....

I pay for the Books and I'm good with that. I pay the price for High end rifles too. I PREFER BOOKS. I like reading books. what's WRONG with that ?

Went to Hornady site, and I am not seeing where it is free. Says the app is free to download and you pay for info you want. Maybe I went to wrong page.
I still prefer the hardcopy manuals.

I also like and have books, but that Data site has never cost me a cent, just put it in your favorites and pull up the cartridge and load info you want. Now if they have a app and you download that, then I guess you have to pay, but I don't download app's, nor do I have and use a smart phone either.
