Has anybody looked at one of these? Does it have actual loading data in it? Does there seem to be a need to have one of these manuals? I find myself currently sorta addicted to the 125 grain plated bullets in .357.

All this was the result of guys attempting to create "lightning bolt" velocities in a chambering that had been designed to throw 158-grain (or heavier) bullets downrange at velocities that would guarantee the demise of steel silhouette critters without involving ridiculous pressures/velocities.
