I heard they are comming out with a new one this summer. From what I hear the 48'th is a good book and you can't go wrong with it. I have seen it at Walmart and am thinking about going to see if they still have any.

Lyman's New 49th Edition Reloading Handbook

Lyman's new 49th Edition Reloading Handbook is the latest version of their extremely popular rifle and pistol manual. The 49th Edition covers all popular new rifle calibers such as the 204 Ruger, 6.8 Rem SPC, 325 WSM, 338 Federal, 375 Ruger, 405 Winchester and the WSSM series. In addition, new pistol calibers such as the 5.7x28mm, and 460 S&W are also included. A wide selection of powders are included covering Alliant, Accurate, Hodgdon, Ramshot, VihtaVuori, and Winchester. Additionally, most popular bullet brands are also used including Barnes, Hornady, Nosler, Sierra, Speer, and Swift. As always, full coverage is also given to Lyman cast bullets throughout the handbook.

This is the one handbook that should find a home on all reloading benches.
