Load Data subscription from Wolfe Publishing

[ltapd204]

I am considering subscribing to loaddata.com. I already own several old and new reloading manuals and like to look at several sources before hand loading. I was wondering if any of you guys have tried loaddata.com and if you have what are your opinions?

I am a subscriber to Load Data. I find it useful.

However, I load several different calibers of handguns (and formerly, rifles). If you only have one or two calibers, you might have a different take.

One thing I like about Load Data is that some of the calibers that I use, like .44 Special, have realistic load data. The regular loading manuals do not recognize the newer, stronger, .44 Special revolvers (like the new Ruger Flattops) and the information available does not allow one to realize the potential of these calibers. I am NOT talking about "hot rodding" the .44 Special but, as a for instance, the Skeeter Load (which is well within pressure limits of the newer .44 Special revolvers but is also well over manual recommendations).

Just a thought or two...

I have paper.
Lots of paper.
From wayback up to latest.
I mean rows of shelves stacked high with it.

I do not believe anything on the internet. I would not pay for it.
I would instead subscribe to Handloader magazine.

I do subscribe to Handloader magazine. I found the subscription information on their website! My understanding is that Load Data has past recipes from Handloader and other out of print sources as well as new sources. They send you a binder and you can print out the information you want. This is why I was looking for input from other members. I appreciate your reply.

Load Data is mostly a compilation of manufacturer's published data.
