 I just noticed that Hodgdon has changed it's Website and removed or changed some of their pistol load data.

They needed to do something. Some of their Winchester data was 30 years old.

Sometimes an old "book" can have some useful information in it.

At least, with a book, you can keep it around to reference it.  On line stuff is just gone when they revise it.

I ran across my old Lyman reloading manual from the late 70's yesterday.  I thought it was in the attic but it was in my new shed in an old chest.  Laid it out on the bench to look through when I get a chance.
I just keep wasting time and money on other brands trying to find/make one shoot like my P07 and P09.  What is wrong with me?

I often download data from the manufacture's web site, than add it to my reloading notebook.  It's easy to reference when reloading and I can get the calibers I'm interested in, BUT I also have several reloading book.  Never too much info.
If I had known how much better being retired is than working I would have done it FIRST.

Reloading manuals are like car repair books.

One will mention/go over things that another does not.
