Default Free hornady 10th edition online.

Just an FYI, right now on iTunes you can download the hornady 10th edition reloading manual for free.

It's not free any more. It's back up to $20 now. I got the Sample copy which has some good info on the basics of reloading, it only has a few pages of small caliber info.

I loaded the sample on ibooks, then scrolled to the last page and a link came up for "get book"
then I downloaded the manual for free.

I wonder if Hornady did not plan on doing it for free and fixed their mistake.

Even if I can get the data elsewhere I still buy the texts. I like the volumes on my book shelf.

I'll have to ask my IOS powered iPhone and iPad why they were so lazy and wouldn't download an IOS based product. lol

I think it was more than likely a either a mistake or a limited time deal.

I was able to snag a copy early this morning. Read it on Facebook, a few of the groups I belong to were talking a out it. Glad I got a copy. Ballistic AE was on sale a few days ago for 1.99, regular 29.99, I already had it though, seems like a lot of sales and such on these products on iTunes/AppStore lately.

I am very much with you in that regard. Kind of old fashioned I guess, but I like the idea that I can scribble my own notes (in pencil of course).

Yeah I'm still keeping my paper books but another book to reference is always nice, even nicer when it's free.

I have printed out all of the manuals and pages I have downloaded. Having another manual would have been nice. When I tried to download it yesterday it had gone to $20. Now it's $26. For those that got it, consider yourselves lucky.
I don't need it but having another resource would have been great.

I'm seeing it for sale for $26.99, too bad, if it were free I'd go for it. I already spent $50.00 to renew my subscription to load data.com. Anyone else use the load data website?

Hodgdon, Nosler and Barnes are free online.

Hodgdon is really good I find. Max loads are usually a little hotter than you find in the other books.
