Good book 9/15/2026
For anyone who reloads shotgun, this book is a must. We know its hard to find load data for shotguns anywhere. This book is one of the few sources with a great variety of loads, and it is very current on powder and other components for 2026 - highly important! No matter what other shotgun guides you purchase, I would urge getting this to complete any library of reloading data. Its one of the best sources of shotgun loads I have found anywhere. If you own nothing else on the subject yet, this is the best place to start. It is the overall biggest source of load data I have found, and convers everything: bird, steel, hevi, buck, and slugs of multiple types.

Feels outdated 9/1/2025
This manual, though “new” feels quite outdated. There is so much of this manual dedicated to powders that have been discontinued. Conversely, it seems like the newer available shotgun powders have very limited data available. Maybe I just had my hopes up to high for this latest edition but I’m honestly disappointed.

Disappointed 6/3/2025
Thought Lyman would list some newer data with more available powders however not the case..Printing data is easy finding components for their recipes on the other hand is a futile endeavor these days. Dont see any change coming in the near future

It takes quite a bit of time to conduct the data research and print books. Meanwhile, the whimsies of the market can change quickly. They can also change back. Nobody knows what it will do.

Amazing Reloading Manual 2/28/2025
The 6th Edition Reloading book from Lyman is the Best go-to for new reloaders in my opinion, it has a whole lot of info of new and current Powders, Hulls, Wads and Primers, it has so much interesting information, I am new in Shotshell Reloading and this book has a lot of Load Data especially for the hulls I can find in my area. I am currently reloading for Sporting Clays and Dove Hunting. Excellent Purchase!!
