Make Your Own Ammo and Save Money Too!

Now in its 10th edition, The ABCs of Reloading has taught countless firearms owners safe, reliable methods of creating their own ammunition. This long overdue new edition brings detailed reloading instruction to shooters who want to improve accuracy, save money and ensure themselves a constant supply of ammo regardless of supply and demand on retail shelves. 

Reloading expert and frequent Gun Digest contributor Phil Massaro lays out the basics of reloading and then digs further into the details in a fresh approach that introduces beginners to this valuable hobby while helping those already familiar with reloading take their skills and knowledge to the next level.

As a bonus, long-range shooters searching for tips on making ultra-consistent ammo using high B.C. bullets and fine-tuning for precision accuracy will greatly benefit from Massaro’s insight into that topic as well.

Massaro’s coverage of the vast array of reloading gear and components that have been introduced during the past decade alone makes this edition invaluable for the enthusiast who might be overwhelmed with questions. From the very basic questions of “How does a cartridge work?” and “What components do I need to get started?” to more advanced information on understanding cartridge pressure, headspace and using a chronograph to check your work, this is THE book to help shooters sort it all out.

Det har blivit svårare och mer utsatt att vara konsument. På många sätt. Företag vässar ständigt sina trix - med fulsälj, kortlivade produkter, kundtjänster som inte går att nå, krångliga avtal och avbetalningar som gör varorna dyrare än du först tänkt dig. Mycket är riggat för att styra, manipulera och lura. Samtidigt ökar kraven allt mer på att vi själva ska kunna navigera i en snårskog av miljöpåståenden, reabluffar, aggressiv reklam och köpfällor på nätet, och vi förväntas på samma gång göra kloka val för både vår plånbok och klimatet. De som har minst drabbas dessutom hårdast, parallellt med att samhällets stöd till konsumentföreträdare minskar.

I Riggat! Så undviker du köpfällorna visar Jan Bertoft, en av Sveriges mest erfarna konsumentkämpar med närmare fyrtio år i frontlinjen, hur du går från vanmakt till konsumentmakt - och hur du undviker förrädiska hål i plånboken. Med konkreta exempel, skarpa analyser och en nypa humor får du verktygen att stå emot, oavsett om du ska köpa en tröja, ett mobilabonnemang eller din drömbil.

"Bertofts bok är i mycket en handfast vägledning för hur konsumenter inte ska låta sig luras av alltför smarta företagare." Sydsvenskan
