    Best source for reloading data - shotshell

    Been reloading 12 gauge with red dot powder but want to broaden my calibres (small .410 ,28 and 20 gauge ) my current data in form of books is shooting times guide from about 30 years ago and some "Hercules" charts which might be even older plus a basic "Lee" guide , is there a good reliable all round small gauge guide for powders readily available in UK or perhaps a cd rom guide ?
    a gun is just a tool how its used is dependant on the person behind the trigger .
    This is why constant restrictions on legal users will have no effect on the unlawfull use of guns or knives !

    The websites of the powder manufacturers mate.

    They all have good loading data.

    http://www.hodgdonreloading.com/

    http://www.accuratepowder.com/load-data/

    etc.

    Thanks , I thought you had to pay for reloading sheet individually so thought a book would be better deal all round , will see what powders my rfd can get for smaller gauges .

    Dude, we have the internets!

    You can download full data manuals and print them off from most the powder manufacturers, it's the bullet makers who tend to be stingy with their load data.
