Hodgdon manual

I have an older Hodgdon manual in the 3-ring binder format. Not too long ago Hodgdon changed to a magazine format. I just bought the 2007 version (around $8.00) and noticed that there is NO load data for the 260 Remington. My older manual has 260 data.

What gives? I will email Hodgdon but a reply may or may not come.

You can find Hodgdons latest data here http://data.hodgdon.com/main_menu.asp

I don`t know about the new 2007 load magazine hodgdon has out, but my 2006 and 1st magazines both list data for the 260. At any rate there is lots of data on their site useing not only Hodgdon powders, but IMR and Winchester in some cases also.

If you read the manual, they say that they decided to list the bulk of their load data online - for quicker updates and error correction. Ands for free, please note!

The 2007 manual is a "theme" production: the 50 most popularly load cartridges. They may continue theme books in years to come, but most of their data will be online, including data for the .260.
