Title: Value in a Load Data Subscription
Post by: Kenk on June 14 2023 07:44:01 AM MDT
Any thoughts on the value of a Load Data subscription? It looks like it could be another valuable tool for load development, but have gotten along fine so far without it.

Ken it's a good source based on what friends have shared with me.  I didn't get into a subscription for myself.  However I do collect tons of data
I write for the free data publications the powder makers send out, but that is get far and few between these days.
Hodgdon has taken control over many of the various powders and it will be interesting to see how that plays out.  I usually buy some of the annual manuals they produce about every other year.
Today most companies have online load data online for you viewing pleasure!

There are probably more as well as people posting actual data from manuals if you ask!
