Handloading Ammunition

This is a facsimile of "Handloading Ammunition," originally published in 1926. This must be one of the earliest books written on handloading. Being first published in 1926, "Handloading Ammunition" by J. R. Mattern is a book which many of the most accomplished handloaders used as a manual. Elmer Keith, Townsend Whelen, and other legends of the shooting and handloading world make reference to it in their own works. This is a truly comprehensive treatise on the matter of handloading. Mattern covers the tools, components, and stages of handloading. In addition to the popular smokeless cartridges, Mattern includes information on obsolete cartridges, black powder cartridges, and foreign cartridges. While the specific load data is probably outdated, the advice and instructions on the selection of tools and components make this a valuable reference work for the handloader and the firearm historian.
