Epic Out Of Print Double Rifle Book Collection - Shooting The British Double, A-Square, Woodleigh, Pet Loads

[rookhawk]

I hate to sell them, but here is the holy quartile of double rifle and large bore reloading books. Package deal.

1.) Graeme Wright's "Shooting the British Double Rifle" 3rd revised edition in dust jacket. (Fine)
2.) Woodleigh's Reloading Manual (Fine)
3.) Ken Water's Pet Loads (Very Good with owner's embossed name on end page)
4.) A-Square Handloading Manual "Any Shot You Want" (usual creasing to spine from being opened as a paperback - good)

We'll sell the 4 books as a lot for $1250.00 shipped via FedEx Ground to the lower-48 States. Payment via paypal F&F, venmo, zelle, chase bill pay, or other simple electronic means where we don't get nicked for a fee.

Funds offsetting expenses my son is incurring getting ready for safari. If they don't sell promptly we reserve the right to cancel the offer. (no point selling them post-safari)

What an awesome collection of rare books for the discriminating collector. These would take years to compile this collection in this condition! Good luck on the sale and to the next owner!

Nice collection but I already have three of the four. If the set is broken, I'd like the A-Square book.

I will take them.

I will take them.

Good buy on some great books. "Shooting the British Double Rifle" itself is worth it's wealth of information.

That was the main catch to me. I also needed A-Frame's book and Woodleigh's. Jazzed to get them.

I have it, but also have 2 A-Sq rifles and sometimes refer to his handloading recipes in it. The book talks about accurized rifles, handloading, ballistics, best calibers/loads for various game, including a few entertaining surprise calibers. For the record, the book has appreciated ~30% in the 10 or so years I've owned it. Some on-line gougers are attempting to push it to 250%, when you can clearly see that it's still available with volume booksellers.

'Once heard a story about a $12K Dakota that wound up selling for $2K. It came to me in a dream...
