Hodgdon has announced the release of its 2019 Hodgdon Annual Manual, which contains data for Hodgdon, IMR and Winchester smokeless propellants in more than 5,000 loads with updates for 17 rifle and pistol cartridges.

With the 168-page 2019 Hodgdon Annual Manual, handloaders can now find data for the new .224 Valkyrie and 6.5 PRC cartridges. Along with the comprehensive data provided, the manual also includes articles by leading gun and outdoor industry writers.

“The Annual Manual is our printed yearly update for the ardent handloader,” said Ron Reiber, lead ballistician for Hodgdon. “We believe one of our competitive advantages is providing cutting-edge data on all our propellants. Our customers know they can look to Hodgdon to be first to supply this information on hot, new cartridges and newly-introduced powders.”

The 2019 Hodgdon Annual Manual can be purchased where popular magazines are sold or can be ordered directly from the Hodgdon website for $12.99, including shipping.
