Cincinnati, Ohio - The October 21st issue of Gun Digest the Magazine features experts weighing in on the continued high level of interest in handloading and offers readers the information they need to get started.
Handloading is the process of assembling the case, primer, powder and bullet of a firearm cartridge by hand, rather than purchasing new ammunition, which continues to be in short supply in many areas. Gun Digest the Magazine created handloading-specific content to serve the continued demand for those interested in the craft.
In addition to economic gain, longtime Gun Digest contributor Walt Hampton recounts other benefits of a lifetime of reloading, benefits that include an increased understanding of ballistics and firearms performance. Handloading rookies will enjoy a guide to all the gear needed to begin reloading rounds and information on essential accessories with tips from the experts on the best places to buy. Additionally, handloaders and seasoned firearms users alike will want to check out Massaro Ballistics Laboratories owner Phil Massaro's discussion on how to load the popular .300 Win. Mag. for a variety of hunting situations and different shooters.
Outside of the special handloading section, Gun Digest the Magazine's newest issue also includes an account of annual classic gun shooting events held around the country and a review of the Lipsey's dealer special Ruger Bearcat Shopkeeper.
Learn the ins and outs of handloading by picking up the newest issue of Gun Digest the Magazine when it hits newsstands everywhere on October 8.
