This is the classic book with all the information needed to make hundreds of different calibers. This list can be expanded to even more with the odd head sizes and obsolete brass currently available. A must have book for the advanced handloader.

2012 Reprint of 1948 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Julian Sommerville Hatcher was a noted firearms expert and author of the early twentieth century. He is credited with several technical books and articles relating to military firearms, ballistics, and auto loading weapons. His premier works are "Hatcher's Notebook" and "Book of the Garand." He was also a pioneer in the forensic identification of firearms and their ammunition. Hatcher retired from the United States Army as a Major General. Afterward, he served as Technical Editor of the National Rifle Association's "American Rifleman" magazine. Hatcher's "Book of the Garand" is the definitive chronicle of the rifle General George S. Patton called "the greatest battle implement ever devised." Hatcher follows the evolution of the M1 Garand from the first semiautomatic hunting rifles to the devastating U.S. infantry weapon of WWII.

Among the ever expanding crop of books relating to the gun collecting field, there have been many lists of gunsmiths. From the pioneering efforts of Charles W. Sawyer in 1910 to the recent studies on the makers of the individual states, more than fifty lists have been published. Unfortunately, most of these are long out of print and not available to the average collector. Those that are available are either incomplete or limited in scope. This work is an attempt to give the collector basic information on the names, initials, and other markings that appear on American guns.

For more books like this, please visit www.SportsmansVintagePress.com  In this classic piece of firearms literature originally published in 1936, the author covers the selection, use, and reloading of revolver cartridges.  Some of today’s most popular revolver cartridges are covered in this book, as well as some cartridges which were popular several decades ago and have since fallen into obscurity.  Elmer Keith uses his wealth of experience with the sixgun to analyze and recommend the correct cartridges for various situations.  This is not only a manual covering the practical use of the sixgun, but is also a valuable reference for anyone interested in the history and development of the modern revolver and cartridge.
