  You need current manuals, as reloading data does get superseded from time to time. Put the Lyman 49th at the top of your "buy" list, and then get the manual from the maker of the bullet you use most.

  I'd suggest at least 20 years more current.
  
  I used to have Sierra, Norma, Speer and Hornady ... then repeat, as time advanced.
  Have found that the formats are different and using manuals from differing perspectives seems to give on a better over-all feel for loading for a particular cartridge or chambering. (JMO)

  Only thing I would like to add is check web sites for updates for typos/bad data in manuals. Rare, but it does happen.
