Unique factbook of old and current cartridges, 2008-12-27
Unique book with all relevant data about current and obsolete cartidges. Nice history facts combined with loading, factory and behavioural facts and data. A necessary book for all loaders, gunsmen and lawofficers from police and justice and ofcourse all people interested in the deeper facts of ammunition.

Best book on cartridges, no contest., 2008-11-24
This is still the most complete book on firearms cartridges, and if you want or need one, this is the one to buy.
It's not quite perfect though, and while the few typing errors don't really make a difference overall, the missing cartridge dimensions on a few (admittedly rare) cartridges is annoying if only because one expects to find the data.

Curious Obsession with Cartridges, 2008-08-31
This book is very well laid out and gives a really good explanation of any cartridge you've every heard of and some you probably have never heard of and a particularly good treatise on obsolete cartridges. The listing of 22 cal. rimfires with ballistic data is worth the price of the Book. Five stars all the way.

Great Reference Book, 2008-07-13
This book has proven to be a great book for identifing cartridges and just learning about some of the not so common rounds out there. It is a very complete book covering black powder cartridges to modern. Each cartridge in the book has a little description and some history and some even have the dimensions of the round. Interesting reading for researching or pleasure.
