Description
A collection of softcover and plastic comb-bound volumes focused on the technical aspects of ammunition reloading and cartridge conversion. The group includes The Handloader’s Manual of Cartridge Conversions, Fourth Edition, by John J. Donnelly and Judy Donnelly; Metallic Cartridge Reloading, All New 3rd Edition, by M.L. McPherson; and Handloader’s Digest, Eleventh Edition, edited by Ken Warner. Also present are two plastic comb-bound manuals: an earlier edition of The Handloader’s Manual of Cartridge Conversions by John J. Donnelly and the Speer Manual for Reloading Ammunition, Number 6. The volumes provide instructional text, caliber specifications, and reloading data for rifles, pistols, and shotguns. Several items include adhesive price labels and owner-applied tabs or bookmarks.
Condition report:
The collection shows signs of use consistent with a workshop environment. The Speer Number 6 manual and the green-covered Donnelly manual exhibit significant wear, including heavy creasing to the covers, edge chipping, and soiled page edges. The McPherson and fourth-edition Donnelly volumes remain in better condition with moderate shelf wear and minor corner bumping. Some internal pages show light thumbing or handling marks.
