    Just got new Lyman 50th Edition

    Super disappointed with the 6.5 Grendel reload info, virtually none in there. Info on (5) bullet weights and NONE on the bullet I have and want to load for hunting. I prefer Sierra bullets and I guess I'll get drips and drabs off the different bullet makers websites. Not a total waste of money, I reload for about 10 different calibers.

      If not Sierra, what bullets did they have load data for?

          I agree, it’s a little thin but, if you prefer Sierra, curious why not just use their data. They list 9 different Sierra bullets with a decent selection of powder choices, then cross check it with the powder manufacturer?
