So I was banging away at the keyboard Wednesday when the big brown truck pulled up and dropped off an unexpected package. In it was a hardback copy of the Norma Reloading Manual, Volume 2. That’s right, it just appeared out of the blue with no note. I have no idea who was kind enough to send it, so I can’t thank them. The only thing I reload are shotgun shells, but from the perspective of a non-precision shooter, it looks very comprehensive. Still, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t benefit from my bewilderment. The best caption for this photo [h/t DrVino] entered in the comments by midnight Sunday gets the book. Ready….go!

  1. The DOD was testing out their new micro armored vehicle today. Final tests will be performed during the Black Friday sales events to simulate real battle field conditions!

  2. It is an update of the No. 1 which has been out of print for many years now. No. 2 includes some updated loads. It is worth the price just for the history and back ground. The step by step reloading section is quite through and is a perfect primer for the newcomer. Alas powders are limited to Norma. But they are outstanding powders. It goes without saying that Norma brass and bullets are among the very best. Enjoy the book.
