An all-new format makes it easier to find cartridge profiles, which provide images, dimensions, ballistic information and historical background. Additionally, several articles delve into the history and manufacturing of ammunition, as well as safety considerations. A bonus color section also provides a step-by-step guide for those who want to start reloading their own ammo. MSRP is $50.
