List of Official On-Line Load Data Sources
These are the "official" sources of load data that are available on-line, that I have been able to find. If you know of more, please include them in your post. I will add them to this list so as to serve as a convenient, single-source reference.
Accurate Arms ADI Powder Guide Alexander Arms 50 Beowulf Data Alexander Arms 6.5 Grendel Data Alliant Please note: Considerable data from Alliant can only be found by going to the "Products" link, selecting the powder in which you are interested and selecting the "View All XYZ Recipes". A great many loads do not show up in the Data Library directly. 2004 Alliant Reloader's Guide Barnes Hodgdon, IMR and Winchester IMR Handgun Guide IMR Rifle Guide IMR Trail Boss Reduced Rifle Loads Norma Nosler Ramshot Rex Vihtavouri-Lapua CAUTION: The following sources include either all unofficial or at best mixed loading data from official, unconfirmed and unofficial sources. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. Neither the writer, The Firing Line, nor the staff of TFL assume any liability for any damage or injury resulting from use of this information. LoadData.com Taffin Tests

Loaddata.com
It is a pay service, about $30 a year, but it has loads for just about any cartridge you can imagine, and it has all the load data that is in Handloader and Rifle Magazines. Additionally, it also contains data from all the load manuals listed at the top of the page. |

Loaddata.com wants $29.95 per year to get you the same data provided by manufacturers? No thanks.

Bump for updated links and requesting other sources of EXCLUSIVELY Official data.
Updated IMR Handgun and Rifle PDF links and added information for finding Alliant data.

Load Data should not be on the list but it is worth the money. It includes all the usual data but also includes Handloader magazine data and Ken Water Pet loads. It is worth it.

Here's a link to a 2004 edition of Alliant's Reloader's Guide, there are laods in here that aren't on the current website. I found it on another forum looking for data for Herco powder.
Alliant 2004 Reloader's Guide Also, some stuff from Alexander Arms on their calibers: 50 Beowulf Data 6.5 Grendel Data What about stuff like Taffin Tests? I'm not sure it's been tested by component companies, just old Taffin I'll include it, if it's not official enough then I expect you'll edit it.Taffin Tests:

Thanks huntinaz, I've added the Official sources to the list.
I'm going to add a second section at the bottom of the list for unofficial, or "less" official sources.

This is a link to older official manufacture's flyers:
http://www.castpics.net/LoadData/Freebies/default.html I find these useful for things like the Reloader 12, which I still have a canister of. They don't make it any more.
