I found myself the other day looking for some load recipes and was bouncing around a few different websites. It occurred to me that I have yet to find a single site that aggregated all the various free sources of load data out there so I started this list. This is obviously not a replacement for a good printed manual like the Lyman’s or Hornady load bible, but if you just need some manufacturer published data then this post should save you some time. Enjoy!
- Hodgdon/Winchester/IMR Powders – Online searchable database
- Western Powders (Accurate/Ramshot/) – Downloadable PDF
- Nosler Bullets – Online Searchable Database
- Sierra Bullets* – Online Blog
- Shooters World Powders – Downloadable PDF
- Lovex Powder (parent company of Shooters World) – Downloadable PDF
- Alliant Powders – Online searchable database / Downloadable PDF / Request Printed Book
- Barnes Bullets – Downloadable PDF
- Speer Bullets – Online Searchable Database
Notes:
* Sierra does not publish a complete set of load data for all cartridges online, you have to buy their book, but they do publish some articles for popular calibers in this blog that I have used to develop new loads.
Does tested load data exist for Acme.45ACP, 175gr SWC, NLG coated bullets. Mfr does not have anything, nor does
Alliant or Hogdon. My Lyman 50th ed, does not have load data for this bullet either. If the data does exist, where can I find it?
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
