The format provides vendor-agnostic coverage of a range of powders and bullets in a concise fashion, and a notation of the most accurate powders and loads for each. In terms of criticism, it would be helpful if the data included how much case volume was filled by each powder load (a factor in accuracy), and I suspect that if you are reloading for military surplus weapons you will find the relatively sparse coverage of the heavier end of the bullet weight spectrum only marginally helpful in trying to replicate military-issue loads. The current edition also omits firearms such as the 6.5 and 7.7mm Japanese Arisaka military rifles for which reloading is frequently the only option.
For a reloader who really wants to know all of the best practices, all of the pitfalls to avoid, and how to approach reloading in a clear step-by-step way, this is a great book to have. The first day I had it, I learned some details on some things that I didn't know, (nothing critical - just good information to have) and I've been doing this a while.
There's also a very nice section that describes almost all of the powders by the brands most commonly available - Alliant, Hodgdon, Accurate, IMR, Ramshot, Winchester, VihitaVuori. Just short descriptions that talk about burn rate, and best applications.
I got the hardback version of this book (it comes as a paperback too) and oddly, at the time of purchase, the hardback was a couple bucks less.
However, the packaging was sub-standard. The book was shrink wrapped and placed in a minimally padded envelope; it should have been boxed, not bagged. It arrived with every corner damaged. When I buy a new book, I expect it to be undamaged. Not in this case. Given that it arrived in Amazon-branded packaging I place the ownership of this failure firmly on Amazon's shoulders. Stars lost for quality based on this experience.
