I didn't believe it could be THAT BAD	March 6, 2021
Reviewer: Richard Dickson from ZEELAND, MI United States

Dumb ass error today on my part. I read the reviews and thought it can't be THAT bad, it just can't be! I was right - it was WORSE. No starting or max loads just a single load for three powders.
But worse than that not all the bullets are listed - no 165gr for 10mm. I just double checked the box and it is intended for use in 10mm they just couldn't be bothered to test any loads.
I love the bullets but Xtreme, hang your head in shame for this appalling joke.

It Works	January 16, 2021
Reviewer: Ed from Cleveland, OH United States

While there isn't a lot of various powders listed you can use the published velocities to use as a guide for the powder of your choice.

Only 3 powders listed per bullet	December 4, 2020
Reviewer: Anonymous Person

I wish I would have read the reviews before purchasing this. I have never seen a manual with so little data in it, especially for something you pay for. Hopefully I can get a refund. They shouldn't even be selling this. I would just give it away like most powder companies do.

Waste of time and money	November 16, 2020
Reviewer: Matthew from NC

This is exceptionally useless. It contains no data for their cast bullets. Was hoping for some 38-55 data since they sell 38-55 cast bullets, and because there isn't much published modern data for 38-55. Save your 5 bucks and put it towards the Lyman cast manual if you're looking for cast bullet data. Most of this data can be found for free on Hodgdon's and Alliant's websites.

Waste of money	October 22, 2020
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from OH United States

Even at $4.99 it is still a waste of money. I have a real hard time believing it took 10+ years of development to come up with the few loads that are in this "manual".

some useful info	September 10, 2020
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Omaha, NE United States

Rated average only because of the small number of powders (3 per bullet) used in their load listings.

But for the $5 I paid (versus $30 for other manufacturers' admittedly larger reloading manuals), it had useful information and I was happy.

You get the COL, velocities, and pressures they suggest for each of their bullets which gets you in the ballpark for any other powders you might want to use that they don't list.

I liked the first section on general reloading. I've reloaded for a while and have read a few reloading manuals and it was a good review.

Kudos to Xtreme for delivering bullets. Even though we are currently in panic bullet buying mode (pandemic, election year), I ordered bullets in late August and they got me bullets within 2 weeks. Other places were either totally out of bullets or took 2 months to get them to me.

I would have to agree with the other reviews	August 3, 2020
Reviewer: Kyle Rhone from Bellevue, NE United States

The 45 ACP data doesn’t include data for their flat point bullet. The powder selections are few and do not include Tight Group or 231 very popular powders for God’s round.

Reloading Manual	April 14, 2020
Reviewer: FRED E HAGERICH from Jeorme, PA United States

I was just looking at the manual and found an error for the 10MM Auto. I was comparing the C.O.A.L. for the 40S&W and the 10MM and the manual have the same measurement. They do use the same bullet but the brass is longer for the 10 as compared to the 40. This needs to be changed - it could be a real problem - failure to chamber in the firearm!!

Dont Bother	March 6, 2020
Reviewer: A. King/reloader for 30 years from Ohio

Very limited powder choices/most are not even popular powders. Has pages of reloading basic instruction info that can be found in other manuals and on the internet and not much data.
