It is currently being reviewed and edited.
My guess is Q4 of this year.
There is going to be some good updated information so
it will be worth the wait. :grin:

Nosler really did a nice job on the RG #5, its my go to book. The #5 woould be a good reference book, not too late to pick one up.
The RG #6 will be even better.

I agree on the #5, although it is conspicuous that certain calibers were left out of it, like 7mmWSM, for instance. Maybe they weren't available for testing in time, but the 300 & 270WSM were, along with the 7SAUM, which seems like they just didn't include my favorite short-fat. Small problem, but I hope they put it in the #6, as it is likely to be dead and gone by #7.

I'll try to find out what new calibers are going to be added to the RG #6.

Iagree, the new manual needs to include the Ramshot line of powders. I believe a whole bunch of us would be using more Ramshot powder if Nosler took the time to include them. The way they meter to nice, Ramshot is certainly a newer powder well worthy of inclusion.

Midway has an expected date of 8/31/07 for #6, for whatever that's worth.

I'm not so sure about that. The Nosler boys are currently reviewing and editing the data. That is why I said the release date would be in Q4.
Again, I will get the status and let everyone know.

JD338 has it correct that the reloading manual should be out this September. Ramshot powders will be added and so will a big batch of new cartridges. All of the WSM and WSSM cartridges along with the ultra mags and SAUM cartridges will be listed. There are many more cartridges that will be added as well. We have also updated the powder listings for our current cartridges.

Here is a little more information about RG #6-
Some of the new cartridges include 204 Ruger, 225 Win, 7mmWSM,
and 7mm RUM.
Powder selection will be from 5-10 different listings per cartridge. The 300 RUM and 338 RUM will have 10 different powders listed.
Nosler is pushing for Sept release. As you can see, there is a lot of new and exciting information /data in the RG #6.
It will be worth the wait. :grin:
