3rd edition of the Lee "Modern Reloading" will ship soon.

The folk at 10ring.com are telling me that Lee told them that the 3rd edition of the Lee "Modern Reloading" will ship soon.

That's the first I've heard of that. If that's the case I'll buy one.

What? The next edition is available? I need this...I own the second edition and I love this book.

It looks like it's just a reprint of the second edition. The data is arranged in a different format with some additions. I ordered one the other day, but haven't received it yet.

Yeah, I see it on MidwayUSA here:

Has yours arrived yet?

Ok - I have my hands on it. I'm pleased with it. Some things have actually been deleted as far as I can see. It's different in size (slightly bigger) with not as many pages. The data is arranged differently and overall is easier to read. I noticed that data for Trail Boss has been included. Several cartridges have been added and a few have been deleted. In chapter 10 there was a small section with cast bullet loads for a few different cartridges - that section was deleted. Overall IMO it's a little more reader friendly. I got it from factory sales and didn't pay much for it, I think I got my money's worth.
