Tough call but I'd probably go with the Lyman if I could only have 1. Not super conservative on their load data and covers a broad range (i.e. not limited to specific bullet brand).

I like the Lyman manual for a good beginner to intermediate book.

I like the Loadbooks USA collection. They cover a lot of calibers except for the very rare. For about $9 at Cabelas, it gives some info that isn't published yet on the internet. cheers

Buy the manual for each brand of bullets you plan on shooting. If you plan on using Bergers, buy the Berger manual. If you plan on Nosler, buy a Nosler manual, etc...

morning, in the wonderous world of handloading there r
numerous instructional editions. each bullet maker and some
powder makers have instructional editions. the most important
sense u have to like is the art of comprehensive reading.
u have to read read read for safety and manual procedures
in the PHD's of handloaders. we as handloaders r the pioneers
of the art of handloading ammo. we help create the wildcat calibers
safety procedures, cartridges and calibers deminesions sp. Iam
73yrs young. been reloading for 50yrs. very much enjoy
talking about the art of handloaders. a never ending science
of the subject. OH! lots of monies helps the collection of knowledge.

You will not get away with one manual. However, top picks are Berger, Sierra, Hornady and Barnes (if you plan on shooting Barnes bullets).

That's why I like the Loadbooks… data from most bullets (Hornady, Nosler, Sierra, Speer, Lyman, RCBS, Barnes, Swift, Berger) and powders (Accurate, Alliant, Hodgdon, IMR, Vihtavuori, Winchester).
I have quite a few reloading manuals (mostly from bullet manufacturers) but I will second the Lyman recommendation for the same reason others noted.

The only manual I use is the one I create my self . They are only a guide as every rifle is different
